The Beauty You Are

The sparkle of a morning dew
An orange colored sky
The fresh bouquet of daffodils
And clouds that float on high.

The brown and gold of autumn leaves
Small children fast at play
A sip of steaming English tea
And mothers knelt to pray.

The brilliance of a summer sun
A freshly painted fence
A book to read on rainy days
And blushing innocence.

A cozy couch to laze upon
A present from your love
Hot peanuts roasted in the shell
And cooing morning doves.

A simple song of sweet romance
A pleasant memory
A work of art to gaze upon
And mist upon the sea.

A bed of freshly fallen snow
A touching serenade
A sonnet filled with special thoughts
And holiday parades.

That each and every one of these
Is beautiful 'tis true
But none approach the unmatched grace
And beauty born in you.

(sigh) Oh, this is so romantic, it made me cry! Oh, your love for her shines like the heavens in here, all so pure and true! She is very lucky to share a beautiful heart such as yours! Thank you for sharing, my friend!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

David2~
How refreshingly unique to see the ways in which you compare
the love of the beauty in your life.

I was particularly fond of this -

'A freshly painted fence'

Now that I can relate to.

This is great, David!  Such beautiful things you've compared your love to.  Love this!

I won't go,
I won't sleep,
I can't breathe
until you're resting here with me...

Oh, David, this is just beautiful! *sighs* The rhyme, the sentiment and the flow is perfect!  You have some unique lines in this.  It is my favourite poem of yours now, in fact, I'm printing out a copy!   I hope she knows how lucky she is to have found you.

Take care,
Melissa
