To Bask In the Sunshine

today
i want to linger
in thoughts
of you
to regain
warmth

feel your hands
tracing the edges
of my soul

feel your lips
brush against mine
pastel like

just to bask
in the sunshine
you always seem
to bring

So true, when we're with the one we love there is always sunshine, who cares about the weather!

Mmm...yes! So happy to linger on my hubby’s lips this morning. The impending nor’easter brought him home earlier!

Now that's more like it. Regardless of the day, the sun is always shining somewhere if you seek it out. Sigh, this was mesmerizing Sandy. Beautifully crafted and so softly and warmly expressed. I may linger here a while. : )
