Your “Yes”

Your “Yes”

June 02, 2024

During the aurora of early morn

Sharing the roof of our rented bungalow

Our vision extends across the sea

Betwixt where rainbows end

And hope is born

Your effervescence keeps me near you

So as not to miss what you do next

You are my elixir of life

Combining all I know to be wonderful

And all you wish me to become

Your outstretched arm follows the sunrise

Lithe fingers diffract light in a myriad of possibilities

Time with you seems so opulent

So iridescent

So much more than reality offers

From our vantage, I see the big picture

Thus, I am eager to act accordingly

Pristine waters creating the horizon

Are the quintessence of a sanguine origin for two

Formed by the merger of two into one

I find the courage to ask the obvious question

You wonder if this is our zenith

Or merely a moment of serendipity

My face offers the assurance of bona-fide authenticity

Your “Yes” is the genesis of our new life together
