Summary: I wrote this to celebrate first meeting my husband.




I'd never seen a lemon tree before.
We reached out that morning
to impossibly blue skies
and swam in turquoise seas.

I'd never known a sun so bright
and amethyst mists round islands as evening fell.

Your laugh flooded your generous eyes
as we walked in moonlit pastures
between stars and sunkissed corn.

You gave me a world.
I don't know where I was before
but I know I'll always love you.
