The Happiest day of my life

Some love poem

The Happiest day of my life

My eyes opened lazily

            to the first light filtering through the blinds

Dawn dancing along the edges of the horizon

As the c**k crows heralding

            the birth of new Spring.

The dew drops I couldn’t capture

But it lightened my heart I felt I flew

            lost in the chill that strengthens

As the day grew brighter

The Sun rose high, soaking me to my bones.

Its Rays sneaking through the leaves

            of the big Oak that withstood the trials of time,

A kaleidoscope of colors.

Cleansing all my cares and worries.

The red breasted Robin serenades sweet songs

            along with the finches and sparrows and others

Of summer, of sensations, of seduction

            of all the flowers that bloomed

I took in their fragrances, giddy.

As the clouds challenged the sun

            for their time in the sky

Dark clouds, cumulonimbus all,

Covering the sky, as the first drops of rain

            danced upon the sun kissed earth,

The intoxicating smell of the wet dust

            that rose in lust and seduction,

Today I fell, slipped embarrassingly.

Yet I laughed as I lay upon the grassy bed

            as the rain blessed my face,

By the window I sat,

Basked in the sheer pleasure of

            a perfectly blended tea

Encompassing my taste and smell

As the rain gave way to whispering winds

and autumn dusk

The winds sang through the trees

as the grasses and my wet clothes

Danced to its tune,

And the birds nestled for the incoming night!

Today, the wind rushed through me

baptizing me in its wake

Rebirth, as I gazed at the setting sun

sending its beams through the clouds

The fiery sky that was the suns final patina, wow

The Evening stars, little specks

            that the passing of the sun summoned,

As the moon in its glory,

Beckoned me to sleep on the very grass that I fell,

Today, I looked up at the stars

            as my old friend, the howling wind,

That kept me company through my young nights,

            visited me again, giving me a clear sky.

As I gazed upon the stars,

The winter chill seeped through the material

Today, I slept in the comfort of my old mattress

            that knows every nook and corner within me

Keeping me warm so that sleep may overtake me.

 

And I thought,

Today could be the happiest day in my life,

If only you were here to share it with me.

Yes, I want to wake up to your breathing,

And walk amongst the flowers in your delight.

Hear your laughter amongst the birds’ song.

And when I fell, you would have laughed at my clumsiness,

as I did.

The perfect tea, could have used your love

And I would have made that lover’s

            never fulfilled promise of the moon,

And peacefully sleep in your warmth by my side.

Today could indeed be the happiest day of my life!

I think more a yearning for that special someone you either have never met or have met and would like to come home. It's beautiful Aleho, vivid and perfumed.. Spiced tea splendour, with a giggle of clumsiness that always seems kind of comfy, how fun.

Its wonderful to read a new write from you, always a beautiful journey.
