You Are My Candy Apple

You are my candy apple,
my five point constellation
soaring by.

My petal soft touch,
my ring of iron will
holding sky.

You are my papered trees,
my ticking time space
spinning on.

My lyrical expression,
my face of tasted fame,
my new dawn.

You are my bottled free,
my street hand gift
grasping to.

My aloe soother,
my turning wheel ride,
...that's you.

Hey there, ya lil Spitfire!  This poem is filled with really neat similes.  I have only one critical comment - there wasn't anything in there like,

You are my size 11 boot,
Kicking kitties
Making me feel buccaneerish.

It was just a suggestion - I won't feel TOO hurt if you don't add it

~Thank you Cat for reading. Yeah,...definately lighter than usual for me but I was feeling sweet at the moment. Actually, it seems a lot lately. Which is good. I think it's that burying thing happening again though, but for now, I smile. Thanks babe for always coming by my words.
