When I Remember
I think of you on rainy nights
as darkness cloaks my bed.
And all my cherished thoughts of you
leap unbidden to my head.
When walking down a sandy beach,
I recall your suntanned skin.
Your golden hair, your stunning smile,
the strong shape of your chin.
Your gorgeous laughter comes to mind,
but then I realize
what I want most is to hold you close,
and gaze into your eyes.
as darkness cloaks my bed.
And all my cherished thoughts of you
leap unbidden to my head.
When walking down a sandy beach,
I recall your suntanned skin.
Your golden hair, your stunning smile,
the strong shape of your chin.
Your gorgeous laughter comes to mind,
but then I realize
what I want most is to hold you close,
and gaze into your eyes.
