A SweetnessA Poem by Spencer Barker
Morning and it was.
Sweet smells, sweeter than the next, sweeter than the rest, gliding through the hallways, ever ghost-like, in its path, encouraging its victims. Windows shine, couches glimmer, even the stove top simmers. Clouds pace back and force as if awaiting a late guest, and pink rose sky stands on end, in introduction. Oh what a pleasant sight! The ever so loving light. Birds wake, chirping in songs of love, with the occasional dove. A stream of feathers and songs all come from the houses. But two. Their feathers ruffle and sway, these two birds, why don't they go away. And it was with this I saw. They sung together, ruffled together, and loved. And gone. But, a sweetness clouded over, and with that, I saw her. Her. As bright and beautiful as the sun itself, tinged with the love and care of a rose. Then our hands closed into the other, leading into the pink weather, to celebrate our day.
