The Sky in Your Eyes

If I could no longer paint the sky,

if it was only white and gray,

I would paint the colors in your eyes,

their twinkle when you smile at me.

For not even the heavens can compare

to the multiple colors of love I see

sparkling sunshine romantically

dancing on highlights debonair.

Everything I Need

You have everything

I could possibly need

in your pants

pockets, full of

gadgets and tools,

pens, pencils, keys

to all the places

I might need to go.

You are always prepared.

Am I calling

your pockets fat?

No. I’m saying

I like what’s

in your pants.

My Mettle

You give me confidence

to conquer the world.

You are my muse,

my mettle,

the mode

of my variable X.

I can go anywhere (with you),

and do anything (you want).

You make me feel safe.

Just because I am not pestering you

doesn’t mean I don’t need you desperately.

And I’m not going to tell you that

I think about you all the time, that

you are the ghost in my mind that

I talk to all day long.

Deep-burning,Unquenchable Love

Young love is a flame; very pretty, often very hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. The love of the older and disciplined heart is as coals, deep-burning, unquenchable.– Henry Ward Beecher
