Another new day...with you

These days move so quickly...

 

 

 

Another new day…with you

 

Pacing the foothills of reason…

collecting thoughts on garden pathways,

reaching for a butterfly

dancing neath an arbor

of outstretched arms

shaping my heart in framed happiness

 

For this longing builds of

sunrise wishes and coffee cup hopes

 

Sunflowers call out your name

in harmonic melodies on breathless breezes

of crimson and clover dotting the lawn

in candy coated

whispers…finding rainbow feathers

on porch swing awnings

 

Aretha Franklin sings

“Day Dreaming and I’m thinking of you” …and she is right

 

As hours pass, the day takes with it

the lingering effects of the sun

pale in glow next to your smile

as even clouded skies can not

diminish the sunset beauty

of your eyes

 

within my mind these mahogany

gems twinkle on twilight painted skies

 

The time now comes for sleep, to dream

of teddy bears named Clara

and satin skin touching mine,

drenched in the moon’s soft light

creating silhouettes of affection

floating on desire…

 

as I drift, awaiting dawns serenade

bringing another new day…with you

I love this, Jack...lines like "sunrise wishes and coffee cup hopes"..."Sunflowers call out your name"...finding rainbow feathers on porch swing awnings...

Those beautiful words, and so many others here in this lovely poem...they make my heart smile.
