For my Valentine, Pamela,


As the morning light lay
     fair upon your beautiful face
my heart is filled with warmth
   against the mornings cold embrace

Lucky for me is nearly
    naught enough to say
for rich in your arms
    I am blessed each day

No matter where my life
   spent searching for grace
was lost among the paths
   your love has brought solace

Forever upon me now
    your beauty and love
will always be just as
   the fair morning light above
