Waking Up

Waking next to you –
O World within my arms,

How can a man have more
Than what I have before me?

I wonder if your sleeping soul,
Wrapped warmly in the blanket folds,

Knows too how warmly wrapped you are
Within this tender heart.

The girl this is about must be the luckiest girl in the entire world. I venture to say that she feels the same way about you. ;) Another beautiful love poem penned by Nick Ruff. I approve.
