her soft body
has the scent of lavendar
though her skin tastes like cinnamon
and her hair smells like peppermint
for some reason i want celebrate Christmas
my everyday in her vibe and existence feels like such
her love shines in vast abundance, and it is never too much
kisses are electric like a surge of benevolent immediacy
the warmth that emits from it all is rehabilitation for the whole of my soul
she is my Stairstep Blessing of Perfection
she has been my Day One since Day One
i have not a need to look at another or even bother with alternative temptation
MERRY CHRISTMAS, MERRY CHRISTMAS TO THEE I SAY
GOOD JOY, GOOD CHEER, SINCERELY WITH LOVE, ALL THE WAY
YES, WE ALL HAVE OUR UPS AND DOWNS
INDEED, WE ALL HAVE HAD OUR BLUES THAT CAUSED MANY FROWNS
NEVERTHESS, I CONFESS, GOD HAS CONTINUED TO BLESS
HE RELIEVETH THE WEIGHT, THE HEAVINESS, AND THE STRESS
WHEN THE RAIN FELL HARD, GOD KEPT US DRY
WHEN ALL RESISTANCE WAS LOW, HE UPLIFTED US BACK TO HIGH
LIFE HAS A WAY OF RUMBLING ONE TO CRUMBLE
I GUESS THAT IS WHY GOD BRINGS FORTH THEMATIC SITUATIONS TO HUMBLE
WHETHER IT IS A SLIGHT FALL OR AN INTENSE TUMBLE,
YOU ALWAYS SEEM TO HEAR GOD'S BELLOW, MURMUR, OR MUMBLE
IN ALL THANKSGIVING, ASSURANCE IS ONE OF THOSE SUREFIRE THINGS
WHILE STARING IN AWE AT THE CHRISTMAS LIGHTS, I GIVE THANKS TO THE KING OF KINGS
FOR WITHOUT HIS GUIDANCE AND HIS DIRECTION, I WOULD BE LOST IN THE FRAY
BY THE INSPIRATION OF HIS STRENGTH, MERRY CHRISTMAS TO THEE I SAY
GOOD JOY, GOOD CHEER, SINCERELY WITH LOVE, ALL THE WAY
you are my superstar by far
simplicity shines solace in the midst of your presence
if i had a spotlight to make true beauty stand out, then you would surely be it
i once had a stairstep life that creaked and cracked
then you came along and unexpectedly repaired all that
now my life is a one story standout totally remodeled
i once had some artwork that was smeared and smudged
then you came along with the clarity of newly bright colors
now my outlook is more modern and less abstract
you are my superstar by far
a gentle peace beautifies the skies of my days like a rainbow
if i had a pot of gold to bless natural beauty with prosperity, then by golly you would be a surefire fit
