Aware

Aware

I am aware of your presence.
As the dusky lavender
of the morning sky
gently tucks away the remnants
of china white stars
I feel your body next to mine
Stretching from your cocoon of sleep
Your presence fills me with joy
And I can barely contain my affection.
In my awareness of you,
I memorize your every detail...
The fine hard lines of your jaw,
the curve of your neck
that my face finds so inviting
The way your eyes sparkle
like Swarovski crystals when you grin.
the little things about you
perfect or not are chreished by me.
As we part to begin the long day,
and until we are alone again,
I know I am cradled in your heart.
Swaddled in the glow of your energy,
I am constantly aware of your Spirit.
