Analysis of Marriage Morning
With light lying low upon the earth,
its prisms shine on your sleeping face.
Love soaks into skin, we feel its worth
as it covers us in sweet embrace.
With gentle caress of silken hair,
breath quickens as passion is renewed.
It shimmers, soft, in the morning air,
then gently breaks midst the early dew.
Each turn of head brings a smile delight,
that dances before a regal sun.
It stays flickering in the twilight,
and graces lips as we're joined as one.
There's no fleeting glance between our eyes,
but a gaze that bores deep into heart,
where laughter is heard from heavenly skies.
This marriage morning from us not depart.
