Love Poem: Dawn of Innocence

Dawn of Innocence

last night
i stood
searching
for a salient star
beneath
a trenchant sky
in hopes
to find
but one 
brightly shining
amidst darkness
to send my wishes
adrift on

this morning
the veil
of twilight
lifted
exposing
a dawn
of ivory
innocence
aglow
with thoughts
dancing
on the breath
of december

it touched
with excitement
like a caress
of feathered
kisses
falling
from lips
of new love

i quivered
in the moment
before
blushing
beneath
somber skies
