Just This Way

to me, the world is enveloped in shades of green
the color of a morning new
wrapped in the truth i see, by the color found in you
and as i awaken, the shades i see are set in the spring of youth
a youth, a place, where my soul does wander
in the wonder, of all life's golden dream
the memory does glimmer, by all that does seem
to be revealed, in the shimmering meaning
of color and form, before my eyes, the smile
the warm laughter, of your eyes, does see in me
the beauty before the world, all is a reflection
a moment, that does surround, in the waters
of oceans green, a color that cleanses in waves of blue
to all the thoughts that hold the truth, to me, the world is
but a moment in these dreams, i have
and such in you, is your smile, the pleasant laughter
of a day come to a close, with your arms snug around me
your heart, next to me now, as we drift on, outward
by the gaze still turned inward, wrapped in one another's embrace
in the space and time of our heart's one true dream
all does seem, just as our eyes do see, to be
as the shades of green in spring's grace today
by the warmth of truth, and in a love, that always will remain
in our hearts just this way
