The Glow Upon My Face

I am a little jeweled stream with pebbles that don`t shine yet gentle is my flow ceaseless and sublime I am a silent stream awaiting dawn`s reflecting hue awaiting tints of molten gold awaiting love,awaiting you You come to me,You come to me A fiery fire- ball standing up high A blazing flame in lustrous splendour seducing me from a blue sky You reach for me,you reach for me like a bees' honeycomb your waxmelt light You pour it tenderly upon my surface Leaving its sparkle filter through pansies as singing bluebirds take their first flight. I welcome you,I welcome you I wait last embers to be set free Before night wears its velvet gown You sink in me ,You sink in me You are my sunrise,even my sunset Incadescent star,the moons you grace You are the painter's tinsel on canvas You are the glow upon my face

This was so lovely and pleasant to read... I quite loved these lines-they really stood out to me..."awaiting dawn`s reflecting hue/awaiting tints of molten gold/awaiting love,awaiting you" ...I love how you personify this most unique stream. I imagine a unique star sinking into clear waters, making it shine and beam like none other. Thanks for sharing this piece.:) Always, Laura
