Goldenrods and oak
Flecks of emerald and amber
Awake! vivid spring

I'm lost in your eyes.
Shining beauty like gemstone.
Hearts entwined, always.

Doting words soothe
Like the whisper of a brook.
With love, spoken,
My heart they took.

A cup of tea
Sits alone on the table.
It speaks to me, consoles,
And tells me all sorts of fables.
I sip its nectar,
Amber and sweet;
Warms me from my head,
Down to my feet.
The thunder roars outside.
Cloudburst!
The heavens frigid deluge;
Sipping rays of sunshine
My warm refuge.
Eyes wander,
The sky’s still gray.
I close my eyes,
I shut off the day.
