Thinking Of You

As I sit on the back porch on the 25th of June,
I count down each waking hour.
Till the moment I get to see your shining face,
Your smile perfect like sun-rays on a flower.

I'm thinking of you as I sit here,
Bowl of cereal in hand.
Letting so many thoughts run through my head,
of the night you have currently planned.

As I sit on the back porch while the sun warms my skin,
The birds sing a beautiful tune.
The harmony of notes puts a smile on my mouth,
A sweet reminder that I will see you soon.

I'm thinking of you as I do each other day,
and your words ring loud in my ears.
The words that you said as I laid down my head,
About the upcoming blissful years.

As I sit on the back porch I think of all our memories,
Will I ever forget them? Certainly not.
I'll keep them close when I'm feeling down,
the thought of your presence putting my heart in a knot.

I'm thinking of you in the sweet serenity, knowing that nothing can compare.
To the touch of your hand on the side of my face,
Fingers moving with softness and care.

So as I sit on the back porch I'm thinking of you,
And seeing how you've changed my life.
Letting thoughts of the future run through my head,
of the day your "best friend" becomes "wife".
