Tiny
Your skin took the sun
And kept it
Warm as the air
Before a summer storm
Your hair held the deep shining
Night
Your eyes
Full of thoughts
To carry usthrough
And into surprise
Your kiss
As salty as sunshine
The promise of candy
And warm slidesdown the banister
I feel your hands
As rough as a starfish
Stretching joy
To reflect the stars of the sky
The thrill of amusement park rides
