In the litany of joy
comes the single
petal peony
burning like a candle

Soft glow of ember
children at the campfire
of memory, sharing
as shadow deepens

Twenty five ways to
say I love you

Talking till the river silvers
in early light

The world sleeps
the dolphins in their deep
the loving song

And you
at last
in my arms

I'm stunned by the beauty of your words matched with the glorious picture

Each time you touch my heart I think there is little more that can reach me like this

Then I discover how wrong I am

For you do it again and again, without end

I love you

I suppose it's possible to love you more (than I do now), and know I will in the coming days and years. But I love you so, at this minute I surely don't see *how.*
