A Poem For Small Things

 A Poem for Small Things

You dunked your head

in the tub and laughed

with me.

We danced for twenty

minutes, not caring

what anyone thought.

We were melting like

butter in the heat

while singing our

hearts out

loud. This summer

day is

forever

is shining through

the city

is gold.

You asked me

if I loved you more

than _____.

That’s not how

it works,

baby.

Love doesn’t

ask for less,

always

more.

Love is not

a window,

it’s the sky.

Let’s head out

to the pool

later and

watch the

moon come

out.

The sun

will set

for sure.

When it’s

dark, let’s

light

it

up.
