The gentle storm


The Beatles: Blackbird remix

The gentle storm

Subsides

As morning rains do

A tender greeting

Sky to earth

A setting for the two 

Reading she sat

Shadow framed French doors

Diffused lace lit

Comfort clad white robe

A beauty, a peace

Made my heart want

To quit

Before

I placed her coffee

On the stand

Looking up

Warm almond eyes

Said thanks

While her smile

Said so much more

Closing book

She rises

Wordless

Her arms slide

To mine

As we begin

A gentle storm
Rises
