And she smiles...

So far away, yet something new each day to share.

 

And she smiles...

 

 

Somewhere in the distance

the horizon sleeps my canvas,

dawn comes to me in a dream

 

While the sun’s early rays

touch her,

widening her sable eyes and she smiles…

 

(before these eyes of mine can see)

 

Darkness drinks my landscape

in silence as I breathe, staring,

sending my heart along this imaginary line

 

As she sips her cup,

warm within this daylight bliss

Mornings are her and she smiles…

 

(and I find a crescent moon smiling on me)

 

A glint, a faint hint of light I see

of grapefruit tint and raspberry ribbons,

like fireflies on the hill

 

She peers out the window,

runs her fingers through her hair, inhaling

blue morning glory skies, and she smiles…

 

(as I exhale the night and greet the eastern glow)

 

Pastels in salmon flow gather of my scene

and I rejoice in the new born light for at last,

across the distance, we may share the sun

 

And she smiles…

Like it 3x. I like morning sunshine. It makes me smile. :)

Nice poem. You described here how the morning greets you with a smile (sunshine), while that woman smiles, too.

Good job!

Both the poem and the picture you chose are breathtaking. Your description of the dawn, and of the woman whom you conjure, absolutely lovely. I know I have said this before, but it bears repeating that you choose words to describe shades of color so well - impressive!

Ah, The cup of love that she drinks is made of your best nectars of words and emotions that you offer her along with nature's magic.
Jack, I think nature smiles every time you share her with the world...:)
