Poem Artwork

~ You Are ~


 


You are a full moon


lighting up a midnight sky


or the colors of a rainbow


in a blazing arch flying high


 


You are an explosion of carnations


in a dark space


or the unexpected scent of sea mist


miles away from an ocean place


 


you are a black pearl


a rare wine


a smooth stone


a piece of amber


 


you are a rare coin


a perfect sunset


a shooting star


a treasured trinket


 


You are a love letter


 that is tattered and torn


you are the scent of jasmine


perfuming the air after a summer storm


 


You are nutmeg and rare spices


an ancient bottle of exotic oils


arriving on sailing ships


from West Indies to our soil


 


You are a flower pressed between pages


a crystal reflecting rainbows


a golden goblet from a pirate’s chest


 


You are an old soul


from a place centuries old


 


You have traveled from somewhere in time


all of this way, so I could love you


 


and I do
