Amber glow rolled in slow
over valleys awakened
by warming touch
of such beautiful hues
where breath taking views
danced across horizons canvas
painted in earth tones
of greens and blues.

I breathed in
the quiet of you
and it filled me with
your essence of calm
where I felt safe from harm
and even now I can feel
two hearts lingering
in the silent      still.

How lovely it is to see you so happy.  I love your poem.  My favourite lines are the first line of the first stanza and the first two of the second stanza.

Donna,

This reads like that first breath of cool morning air that precedes a hot summer day.  Know what I mean?  It's beautiful (like my favorite time of day).
