Laura
Amy M. Kennedy

sun rises as a new day begins
Rays of golden sunlight stream through
From slumber I awake and dreams end
And thoughts drift softly to you
            ~~~~~***~~~~~

eyes of emerald captured my heart
a love created under a turquoise sky
think i loved you from the start
tears of joy and sadness I now cry
            ~~~~~***~~~~~

you are like a blue sky to a gray day
and some things just are meant to be
our love is like a new try to an old way
as i wipe my tears-- i begin to see
            ~~~~~***~~~~~

as the day passes things become more clear
and my heart starts to see a burning light
my soul no longer burned as much
as it takes off in amazing flight
            ~~~~~***~~~~~

crimson red sunset lies low in the west
as horizon from sky meets the sea
And now I look up at the moon--a half formed crest
As I wait in anticipation endlessly
            ~~~~~***~~~~~

justice still hangs in the balance today
As the darkness comes and the stars appear
But still the light burns within--a single ray
And for a single moment in time--i feel you near

This piece is excellent and very well written Aimster...your use of words and the visions you've created was very graceful.
