Beauty and the morning
I awake slowly and open my eyelids and can't believe that you are
Sleeping there besides me
Hair damp from the summer heat
Surrounds your face like petals of an exotic flower
Hiding the mystery of scent from a bee searching for pollen
Last night you took me to places that I had only
Dreamed existed
Our cells connecting passing love through osmosis
Into the realm of deep knowing
Past intelligence
Past the third star on the left
You opened a world of kindness and acceptance
I tasted your salts and felt your smooth skin
Feeling its glow on my fingertips
As we lay together our eyes had focused on depths
Within and on worlds of atoms without
The facets of your gem shone in colors beyond my silly little
Comprehension
This morning's sweet memories of time
Call for more than coffee
