From Where I Stand

From Where I Stand, your face catches the sunbeams at the right moment.

Your eyes twinkle as the light ripples your eyes into tiny balls of mirth.

Your hair looks like wind caught it at the right moment and sent waves of sun-flecked wisdom through its strands

Your chocolate-shaped home which lingers long


Love looks like it met you in the freckles which adorn your skin

Love looks like it sent demure joy when it tempered your eyes with sullied joy

Love look like your tender fingers caught in paper-like tendrils

Love looks like your paper heart bewitched by the September breeze

Your face crumples and the tears cause dainty pearls to wither

                  here in my hands, where they look best.
