I Behold You Poem by Eddie Roa

I Behold You

Rating: 5.0


The acacia tree
rained shimmering jade
below its bowers
where you and I slept the night
on soft ground, on a blanket of ferns.
Last night I chanced to see
the radiance of your face
in the first glimmer of moonlight
and the classic splendor of your bearing
imposed on the glorious light of dawn.
I wonder now if you are prettiest
in sunlight or in the glow of a full moon.

Even in sunlight or in the glow of the moon, the one you behold most is ever beautiful in your eyes..........10
