Chasing Light

Chasing Light

He quite simply fell in love
with the way
she held her head like that
Tilted slightly
to one side, just listening ..
Much like
a sunflower might, intent
on nothing else
but chasing light ……………
And then,
standing tall on tippy toes
all of her
five foot, goodness knows ..
Perfect,
yet shy and waiting ………….
Oh’ so very
golden .. Sun kissed and sun
warmed ..
Well-oiled and burning bright
