You Are

You are
the dog-eared pages
of a favorite book
I want to read again.

You are
the scented boughs
of the magnolia tree
in a hidden glen.

You are
the soft warming rain
on a summer night
that falls upon the ground.

You are
the song of a lovebird
singing in the dark
oh, the lovely sound!

You are
the lovely goddess
in a mythic tale
making everything right.

You are
the sweet in a recipe
filling me with happiness
grateful for you tonight.
