sunday poem

a quiet affection
one moment's reflection

a thought before you sleep
a call when you wake
a smile on your face
a spring when you step
a step when you see
a glow when you leave
an urge that you keep

a spark when we touch
a surge when we love
a love that we keep
while awake or asleep

when spring comes to step
and sees that you glow
the spark warms the touch
and the smile on your face

it's the love that awakes
from the sleep that was slept
a quiet affection you gave and i kept
