Treasures Await
Life is a Kaleidoscope through his eyes…
Vibrantly rich
Ever-changing surprise
Charmingly amusing
Laughter vanquishes sadness
Cooking becomes art
Foods burst across palates
Wine showers taste buds in her velvety bouquet
Music peppers a collage of memories
Each song composing another verse in an eternal melody
Every day a continuance of thrilling excursion
Routine moments intensify
With that rare someone who spies
Magic in the ordinary
A jolting thunderstorm turns into
Breathless candlelit moments
Tantalized by zigzags of electric energy
Punctuated by soul-stirring booms
Admiring stars as they poke through breaks in the clouds
Flaunting glows with zip in their strut
His arms swiftly encircle
Fingers intertwine
Onward
He gently guides
Around the bend
He gestures
Beaming
Treasures await…
