In late January,
you walked into my life
and for the briefest second
I felt like a flower blooming.
Each petal folding backwards,
falling softly to expose me
warming from the inside out.
The first thing you said to me
was to name a Morpho in flight,
with the name I would choose for him.
That was when I felt my ice melting
and know yours did too,
in your easy smile and black curls.
I was smitten from the moment that we met,
and I pray tonight that today will not be the last.
