mother nature

when i look at you
my heart stumbles forgetting its rhythm
my breath fills me with a childlike giddiness
yet, i find myself completely serene and blissful
finally, i understand why the stars twinkle and the moon glows
they have known of your beauty all along
they delight in our adventure
tease of what’s to be discovered
and celebrate our love
as do i, once again, forever
