As we sit looking out over strawberry sherbet skies, breathing in the solitude of twilight’s scented breeze, remembering the passing day and laughing at firefly sparkles glistening in our eyes
I see evening’s first star appear beyond pine tree shadows, above a drowsy horizon An opal on a deep violet canvas illuminating the desires forever glowing in my heart, and I make a wish
Enchanting cricket song wafts through the fields in harmony with our heartbeats, when you take my face in your primrose petal hands and kiss me, sweeter than jasmine pudding, taking my breath away
Then resting your head on my shoulder you sigh, telling me I am everything you have ever wished for and you will love me forever… as I look back up at the star *and whisper, “thank you”
