Watercolor

The morning after love

A gentle tender whisper

In the daybreak as we rose

Bagels and lox for you

Just cream cheese for me

Our favorite cafe` table

As we sipped a darkened brew

Smiles endlessly shining

Eyes singing delightfully

Dancing in their shadows

As they penetrated

My quiet composure

A somewhat pleasant stress

Washed over me

In my naivete

And I whispered

I love you...
