Umbrella For Two Is Love

Like sugar 
from bottom 
of cup
love swirls 
sweetness
to the top
with rosy 
expectations
it starts
till rains
start muddling
its heart
then love
opens umbrella 
surprise
till sun returns 
its shine
chocolates
blue roses
sweet dreams
maturing 
through smiles
and icy winds
like seasons 
of earth
life spins 
around center
sunflower
within
illumed by Sun
unseen
young forever
lamp of fire
Love
eternal
