Listen to poem:

Showing me the universe

Arm-in-arm unspoken is the message received; neither of us is looking to disperse; Standing parallel, hands held laced, with a kiss to yours averse I'll look for days at a loss for simple ways to remember each smile you intersperse; Though our dinner is done, can we still be spoons who can also converse? I hold your head, and we watch the sky fade to honey-red; day, please reverse! Be damned the stars playing out the scene of all nights past rehearse As city lights come on all around us, I'm lifted from a lifetime's blinding curse On this terrace, while they sparkle in your eyes, you're showing me the universe

If only we knew when mystical things, were going to show us the moments pure happiness brings. :) A.S.
