Special Occasion

I want to be 
your special occasion 
To see you smile 
like you’re on vacation 
That in a cool sorta way 
I’m your happy activation

I want to know
you see and hear me
That there’s nowhere else
you’d rather be
I want to be invigorated
full inside not empty

I want to be
your ocean and sun
temporarily extraordinary 
your truly special one
The perfect cup of tea
you won’t share with anyone

I want to be
that special book you can’t close
the one that make you tingle
from head to toes
To be in a picture together
doing some silly pose

I wish and want to be
the first joyful thought of your day
That I can be a glorious song
to which you sway
Yes, to be your special occasion
that is better than okay!

For you my sweet love
are my special occasion 
When I see you smile
I’m on vacation
In the coolest best way
you are my happy activation

I am thankful for my sweetie
Thanks for being my special one.

This is truly a wonderful poem, I am sure that this one is written for a special person and all of the feelings and emotions are directly from the heart, although the whole poem is beautiful but my favorite stanza is the 4th one, "I want to be that special book you can't close" good luck my friend and have a really nice day
