Downy white hairs 
Kissing your cheek
Lines hugging face
Curves cling to waist

My eyes wrap round
Your whole being
Love who you are
In every possible way

A painter poised
Dips nib on palette
Tenderly caresses
Curves and shades

From whispers
To grand gestures
Silence fills blank space
What's left unsaid

Presence like a guest 
Stepping backwards
Canvas a kaleidoscope
Never erased
