if I could write to you
of my love, this would I say:
that you are the best of us,
that your heart shines through –
more pure than purest gold,
more beautiful than the sunrise,
more precious than finest spun silk
You are his wonderful creation,
a creature beyond imagination.
You rule my thoughts
and fire my senses;
and my soul thrills
at the sight of you in the morning,
at the tremulous note of your voice,
in the silence that descends upon us.
You capture me
and I am yours.
