I hope everyone had a great Valentine’s Day last Friday. To help you continue some of that romance, I’d like to share a sweet love poem with you.
Beauty in Silence
On a wooden bench,
we sit
with our endearing
shadows.
Your arm
around my shoulder,
my head on yours.
Fuzzy cashmere
brushes my cheek
as we watch
cars zoom by –
a flash of metal,
a puff of dust.
A squirrel scurries
across the lawn
as the sprinklers
turn on
with the scent
of Spring.
The breeze ruffles
your hair.
Tulips waver
side to side.
Leaves float
to the ground,
a gentle sound.
The sky changes colors,
the sun drops down
as your breathing
joins with mine.
Watching
the world go by.
