When you rest, your head between my shoulder and jaw My eyes forget every weight they ever carried or ever saw I'm just a man, but to me, you are the world without every flaw When your sweet oranges look up at me, I am forever in awe My sadness is eviscerated by each breath you will ever draw

Admittedly, not everything that I write turns out as good as I would like it to, but I'm happy when people enjoy hearing my voice. At least I hope I'm not being arrogant, and that's what you meant lol. Thank you very much for spending the time to read my poems! Cordially A.S.

Just a boy and his pooch :) All kinds of love in the world just have to "Paws" to see it sometimes ;)
