Luminous

Your eyes are the Fourth of July
Your smile the light of day
But the light in your heart
Is much brighter by far
And it leaves me dazed
And completely amazed
Just to glimpse one tiny ray.  

You’re luminescent, incandescent, brilliantly bright
But I know all about the fire behind the light
Let me warm myself beside it
Always want to reignite it
Light my way and stay within my sight.

Skat A Date: 9/7/2013 8:13:00 PM Nice Jennie, , Your first poem on the soup is excellent for the readers!! Stopping by with a nice, sweet Welcome to Poetry Soup. Wishing you the best when it comes to your poems. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you like. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND". Hugs* Skat * Login to Reply Jennie Baron Date: 9/8/2013 7:30:00 AM Thanks so much for the "hug," Skat! This poem has gotten the best response, but I almost feel it's not even mine because it's from some fiction I'm tinkering with, which involves a songwriter, and it's part of one of his songs. Except he made it into a complete song, which I couldn't. Hope to have more time to chat with you.
