Chasing Light

Neville

Chasing Light

 

He quite simply fell in love

with the way

she held her head like that

Tilted slightly

to one side, just listening ..

Much like

a sunflower might, intent

on nothing else

but chasing light ……………

And then,

standing tall on tippy toes

all of her

five foot, goodness knows ..

Perfect,

yet shy and waiting ………….

Oh’ so very

golden .. Sun kissed and sun

warmed ..

Well-oiled and burning bright

          • Fay Slimm.

            Your tender expressions put romantic poetry on a whole different level and to say I enjoyed this would be putting it mildly - -- a sigh of a read Nev........x
