Love Colors

His arms postured and reaching like branches
With the strength and vigor of the wind
His eyes are charismatic as a sapphire open sea
With moony wisps of salty air setting me free
And I am wrapped around his heart
Love has triggered a ruby hunger
Emotions have swelled as the heat of a summer day
Cherry plum lips so feverishly ripe
Hearts of fire are eternally linked
Lovers tempest sentiment cry aloud
Profoundly stuttering the venerable soul
Forever passing in an enchanted state
Having painted butterflies and turquoise fairy dust  
Tenderness knows no limits of tone
Her twinkling aurora of colors rise in the darkness
Grasping at the echoes, and a moment in time 
The driving of measurable love sublime


(Dedication to my husband John )
