came and went,
you came
and stayed,
and I was in a hurry
to love you
and to love you more.
You are the color of love
in all places we’ve been,
and in every moment
we’ve shared,
a late breakfast
and a celebration
of every reason
to go on caring
for each other
till time is no more.
I have been eloquent
in calling out your name
and in whispering love
all afternoon long.
It is even easier now
to listen to my name
called out
in whispers
of
love.
