Rub your sleepy eyes ---
Hues that pushed their way through gritty snow
Reminding her that spring was coming back again
--- Blinded by sugary light.
Blink away the phosphene ---
That blurred orbs of kelp on the shore
Freckled with splinters of driftwood in a bonfire
--- Until you see her.
Reach out your arms ---
Sore from the bed space you gladly surrendered
Dangle an arm over her draped, silken body
The surface of her pristine white, form-fitting
Nightgown that pooled around her like liquid silk
Caressing her skin like a cool autumn breeze
--- Hold your precious girl.
It's true that she ---
Snored when she was exhausted, especially after dancing
Her parted lips hushed sounds of deep slumber
A noise ever so pure, graceful, and mellifluous
In her dream, she steps into a field
Of beautiful flora that accentuated her azure eyes
Captivating the untouched, dark corners of your heart
And licked them until sparks crackled with adoration
This curious wanderer that chased butterflies and prose
--- Never knew your worth.
