What Lovely Interruption

My admiration grows
with every conversation,
with every new occasion
that's given me to glimpse your radiant face.

I'm stricken by your grace.
Serenity's your essence;
I weaken in your presence.
And nothing is enough compared with you.

I'm driven to pursue
this sweet increasing pleasure.
Not unobserved, full measure
of beauty reigns within your warm brown eyes.

You took me by surprise.
Your youthful, peerless spirit
impels me to be near it!
What lovely interruption when you came.

Now life is not the same.
May my every yesterday
spent with you, Dear, ricochet
into our bright tomorrows' afterglows.

Oh, this is gorgeous, Andrea, (I would have placed it much higher), and so romantically-inspired and skillfully written ... just adore the cadence and emotion, straight from the heart! Blessings and congrats, Dear Friend - you are blessed to be so in love! I found two soul-mates in this life and lost them both through carelessness. It is RARE. :-) <3

A very beautiful set of loving stanzas. And yes, it is incredible how a relationship may blossom from ground zero. My wife didn't like me at first, which I think is quite funny and BTW, congratulations on the length of your honeymoon!
