The Colors of Love

My vision cleared the moment he took my hand, and this drab world became a colorful wonderland. Summer grasses became a soft carpet of green. Eyes full of love painted a canvas of hues, serene. My heart turned the sky blue and clouds into crowns. Robins were singing, bells ringing in harmonic sound. The warmth of his touch rivaled the heat of the sun, a golden circle to symbolize our love had begun. Trees blossomed in brilliantly colored flowers. Love has such extraordinary mystical powers. I felt so light and happy, I might have been floating. Forgive me if my new-found love has me gloating. If holding his hand in mine made me feel like this, I wonder what emotions I'll feel with our first kiss. 6/8/16
