My heart strobes to meet and greet you
In a way exalted all we’ve been through
In the way that I have seen you be
Jocularity masks a moody melody
What you seem to think is clear falls pitter-patter here
In the soft scents of gentle May rain
Undisguised it lifts us from such pain

And yes, it hurts to breech heartfelt tessellations
Seemingly unwanted in the sea of vast vibrations

Yet the shore stands immortal to the crest
A trust has thrived unfaltering from East to West
Though I may speak my peace, in tune and time immune
Still hold you close and dream of Aspens hoping soon
The tiny place you’ve given grace that nestles me
Once paralyzed repairs revised as dawn to comment happily
A firefly bespeaks the rye and warms in turns it’s home
A flicker lights the places where you left me room to roam

In peek-a-boo emotions that I thought were cast to fail
Only to be hide-and-seek, the found light does prevail

Yet the shore stands immortal to the crest

It does, doesn't it?  You have such a gift
of descriptiveness.

Nicely done,  and tesselations was an added
gift, though the dictionary assisted me
just a bit...smarty!
