Italian Sunset...
Italian Sunset...
As I lay in the warm soft sand
Watching it fall slowly to it's resting place
Shooting rays of red, pink, yellow and orange
It descends from the highest of mountains
It's light penetrates the very depths of the ocean
It seems to pause for a moment when it meets the horizon
So all can marvel at its beauty before it falls into the ocean
So it can rise again to awaken the new day
Warming my heart with it's mystical touch
The grains of sand sparkle with light
Reflecting colors of red and yellow
It paints the sky with waves of brilliant colors
And i look out onto the sea where waves are crashing in
Carrying highlights of pink and orange
But laying at my side is she
Fairest of the sun and the sea
This sight is truly beautiful what god has created
But the the sight of the one I love
Laying beside me is far more mesmerizing
Then the sea tainted with mystical colors
The sun emitting color of wondress hues
And the white warm soft sand at my feet
For she is a more spectacular sight
So I turn to gaze at her beauty and see
Eyes of a blazing fire, passionate and caring
Her hair glowing with yellow light
And her soft skin and flawless complexion
With a profile that could steal your heart away
For she posses natural beauty
I raise my hand to caress her cheek
Leaning closer to whisper in her ear
"I love you more than anything in this world
For the sight of you is truly more beautiful then anything else god has created
I would rather gaze at you then the Italian sunset at this enchanted beach"
Helping her to her feet
I fall to one knee
Holding her hand
Looking passionately into her eyes
I ask
"Will You..............."
Her eyes grow wide
With a more intense stare
Looking into my soul through my eyes
She replies "I would rather...."
I woke Up looking around
Still tasting the salt and sand
"Where's Je......" I mumble
But then I realize this was only a dream
But it felt so real I said to myself
I could feel the sand under my back
My skin still warm from the setting sun
And the feeling in my heart that she gave me
When she looked into my eyes
O how I wish this could be...
