Precious

As hopeful as the rising of thousand suns is the hope that I see when I see her smile. Everytime I see her lips part, and her spotless white teeth shimmer, coupled by the deepening of her cheeks and the glow in her eyes, gravity ceases to exist, like billions of fireflies carry my body up on the horizon and unto the heavens. Her eyes are as blue as the pristine sky on a fair morning that bring glitter of a thousand hope. Her charm is like the allure of a mountain of pine trees that attracts billions of fireflies. But above all, the heart behind such smile is as beautiful as the glow of a billion stars, as precious as the glimmer of a billion diamonds, and as blissful as the rain after centuries of drought. Her persistence is as inspiring as a one last friend that stands beside and follows, even to the farthest corner of the universe. Her patience and understanding is like eternity. 

In her shining eyes 
glow the hope that calms my soul ~
like bliss of rapture
