Human encounters evanesce

and some feelings are ephemeral

Yet the energy you foster

and the power in your meaning

is eternal

I feel it when I stagger + awe

at the purity

of your presence

Time stands still as I smile for a while

admiring you touch another soul

Brimming with beauty

you blew me away

with your

halo of humility

Your courageous fervour to care

burns brighter than

a thousand flares on fire

Fuelling the seeds you breed

so many spirits you feed

whilst you glow

and cook slow in

your cocoon 

Cradle your deepest desires and dreams

and never let go

only nourish what you sow

I have tasted your potential

it’s existence is essential

like glittering the night sky

with a stream of stars

Here you shimmer and shine

when I close my eyes and wonder

how to capture your chroma and ponder

your sweet disposition

I undress your body armour

and embrace the vivid visions

of the promise you store

To feel it balloon and soar for a fleeting moment

then float, flutter, and fly high

as it glides into the heavenly horizon

that is your future

is a blessing

In time

your full rhyme + rhythm

will sing

as you spread your wings

and evolve

You have so much

love to share

and fulfil

with all the lives

you will transform

I thought I was alone

so thank you

for giving me hope
