Love Letter

My Dearest Colorful Queen,

     Thirty seven colors in one tail feather
The most beautiful Peacock ever
That's 
           what 
                     you 
                            are...
     A euphoric tail feathered star
All perfectly placed like a work of art
Be
     still
            my 
                  heart...
     Everything you chirp it hurts
Hurts in an oh so lovely way
Each
          and
                   every
                              day...
     Did you put this lump in my throat
Because I can't even swallow
You 
         I
             will
                     follow...
     When your presence is close my dear
You are all that I can hear
Your 
          voice
                     so
                           clear...
     I want to wrap you in my wings
And sing songs like song birds sing
Will
       you 
              marry 
                          me???
     Together forever in turquoise harmony
You are already a part of me
We 
       are 
              forever
                            lasting...
     Let's fly together in our dreams
To our own nest for future offspring
One
        big
               happy
                           family...
     I have your ring to match your beautiful artistry
I had it sized for your claw perfectly
It's 
      meant 
                   to 
                         be...
     I am honored to be in your presence
Each and every precious second
Please
              say
                      yes 
                             please...
     As I humbly await your reply
Love, that Peacock Guy
