Roses are Redder


Roses are redder and the sky is deep blue.
colors are more vivid when I'm with you.

Water is wetter and soap is sublime.
when bathing with you slippery, anytime.

Sunlight is brighter on your soft skin.
the whole world is lit up with you within.

Scent of your essence stays on my mind.
like your cooking awakening hungry time.

Air that I breathe is lighter somehow.
breathing it together under tree bough.

Weight of my gravity is greatly reduced.
in your presence, my essence seduced.

Under the covers it's you warmer by my side.
whenever you're away, much colder, I abide.

I'll cry more than ever if ever you are gone.
an avalanche of tears I didn't turn on.

Thought for a change I would write something that most poets seem to love.
