Ways I love you
by WD Tuck
I love you
like an ocean wave
traveling thousands of miles
in search of the perfect place to break
open into all it has to give.
I love you
like the lone sparrow
emerging at dawn with wings
beating toward a red sun rising
in a distant place of mystery
I love you
like a golden flame
spreading across a cold plain
with embers close enough to warm us
or consume us both entirely.
I love you
like a gentle wind
kissing your forehead
reminding you to look up at wide sky
so blue you can only see possibilities.
