Candle dancing
flame enhancing
bright as the sun
I opened my eyes
to a new sunrise

Surprise!

Before me lie
kisses from Heaven
frozen in time
perfect and serene
lying in rhyme
about me
spread across my bed
petals
the hue of red

I stirred - ssshhhhh . . .

s-l-o-w-l-y
I opened one palm of my shaking hand
and smiled . . .

A Kiss from Heaven

I'm a dyed in the wool morning person, and that moment of opening my eyes to sunlight is almost as enchanting as your poem.  Ken

Through rubble and trouble and dark of night
The yawn of a dawn will hasten the light

Very descriptive. I like the way this brought the poem to an almost screeching crawl...
Outstanding job as usual.

ahhh - I love the sunrise -
that warm kiss of the sun
gently waking you
& hopefully
your lover, snuggling
candles waning
taste of heaven

Thats what came to mind when I read this.

thankyou for sharing this beautiful write littlewing - I enjoy your writing & look forward to more
