your beauty

your hair 
as tempting as candy 
I just want to reach out and touch it
smell it
pull it closer to me 
so you have to come closer too
your eyes 
like two pine forest floors in the summer 
with sunlight beaming through the branches
illuminating the wonderful 
deep world beneath the green feathered trees
a world where anything is possible 
and everything knows it
your fingers 
soft and delicate
I love your fingers
they're so slender and agile 
each one a tiny dancing ballerina 
across the dance floor of your keyboard
your laugh 
your real laugh 
like the twinkling of the stars 
and the singing of the songbird 
a laugh that cuts through the dampest of moods 
and makes me laugh with you
your smile 
made of sheer joy 
and the early morning dew on a rose bush
that spreads like butter on warm toast across your face 
and your heart warm like a summer day 
so warm that as soon as I see it
I know 
I'm gonna be ok 
your love as sweet as sugar 
and as flighty as a fairy 
so hard to catch.
