Sparkles and Dust

What if we are energy.

The sparkling remains 
of a great supernova.

This must be 
why I love you.

Why every time I think of you
the stars shine from your hair
and your eyes.

Why your skin look like porcelain
as you turn toward me
like an angel from the sun.

Thanks for your reply. My name is Per Martin Steen. I am 32 years of age, and I live in Norway in a small village called Grong. For the time being I have no job, so when I have nothing to do I write poems. Again thank you very much for your reply on one of my poems. Maybe we will stay in touch. Thank you. Per Martin
