Flame Eternal

You are a perfect picture,
Pastel shade of pink,
and black,
Auburn hair, set in gentle curves,
Your eyes meet mine,
for an instant
we are lost in one another,
My heart beats faster,
that hint of humor,
perched upon your lips,
The pride swells within me,
I give a lazy wave..
then mouth the words
“Thank you“,
But it doesn’t seem enough,
I am transfixed by you
beside me,
You turn, framed by sunlight,
Radiant,
and so we sweep,
carefree,
into Dealey Plaza....
