And love is like this

By: Michael David Coffey

Listening for your presence
in my awakening,
The soft morning and
dew on the grass.
Pink and red rose bouquets
poised poignantly,
Garden kisses in the gray
greeting of a morning.
Listening, praying --
in the day's gesturing,
Smiling in dreamy anticipation.
Longing for
your warm
sweet breath
delicate touch
whispering love.
