The Little Things
December 28, 2013
I never thought
I’d be sitting
Underneath this solemn tree
Your eyes mirrored in mine
The butterflies dancing around
Our interlocked knees
The sky dripping of a
Promiscuous blue that revealed
A subtle splotch of white—
Never a flaw in such a perfect ocean,
But always a wave of delight.
No, I never thought you could teach me
More about the little things
Than what I already knew—
But you made every ant in the dirt
Become an invaluable queen of the universe,
Every little fish in the sea
Was a grand reflection of you and me.
