I see you afar
approaching on the path
backlit by sunrise
I sit
warmed in morning’s window
watching you
as you stop to rest
in this moment
I’m consumed by you
as your lips sculpt a smile
I’m swept away
on love’s sweet tide

So sweet Rob… before that smile of she seeing you I thought maybe it was about stalking #greatrelief
It is Bjorn, it’s the heart stalking it’s loved one, in a sweet innocent way… 🙂
Love the anticipation in this, especially the line “warmed in morning’s window.” Beautiful.
Thank you De… 🙂
Aww…
…shucks 😉
Your romantic poem is such a relief after the bleakness of Björn’s quadrille, Rob! How exciting to be watched by a lover when ‘backlit by sunrise’.
Thank you Kim, glad it lifted… 🙂

Unable to comment anywhere because WordPress says I don’t exist, even though I’m definitely logged in to both WP and my email account. Just thought I’d share that.
Also, the poem is lovely.
Thank you Xan? 🙂
So you must not be a WP site, because this is the only dverse share I’ve been able to comment on, including dverse itself. Very frustrating.
I see you Xan…!
There is something almost spiritual about the moment when a loved one turns to see, recognizes you, and smiles. Really sweet poem, and I think I’ve seen you use this image before but you spiced it up?
Thank you Lisa… 🙂
