Face
The day
In coldness chill
Pitching smile kisses
Across the gray green
fading grass
Morning misty
ghosting breath

Step up to the plate
Hit home the spinning
Rush of love
Saving it all up

Tossing through
the windshield
He’s grinning
In reverse
Backing out
Knocking over
Garbage cans
Laughing
Catching my love

Sighing
From the enamour
Of a well spent night
Still lingering
When he leaves
For the day

I need him
To Be that way

Sounds to me that it's on days like that that one calls in sick to work...    Pleasant thoughts here (although the last couplet could be interpreted in a completely different direction...)

Regina,
This just puts a smile on my face! I'm sure I have it pictured plainly and I think what you're wearing had something to do with it! Just had to read it again. I'm going to have to keep this as a favorite.

The past is history and the future is a mystery, but today is a gift and that is why it is the present!

If you're always true to your heart,
you two will never drift apart.
And when you say,"Look at me",
He'll be what you want him to be.


Regina, this made me so happy for you, remember the truth lies in the eyes always, so look deep.  How lovely this was.
