Three hundred and sixty five sunrises <br />Three hundred and sixty five sunsets, too <br />One whole year of days and nights comprises <br />The measure of time that I have spent with no you <br /> <br />Winter’s chill over a blanket of white <br />And then Springtime’s rebirth of life anew <br />Summer and Fall did come and go quickly <br />Time goes by, still leaving hope to be with you <br /> <br />Glistening rays on golden waves have danced <br />And storms’ fury seems beautiful, it’s true <br />But, no bright lighting cloud could stand a chance <br />When compared to the beauty that’s found within you <br /> <br />Make no mistake, I’ve seen beauty this year <br />I’ve seen it each day with the morning dew <br />And watched by night above this earthen sphere <br />But, within all of these sights I am seeing you <br /> <br />So, though it may have been a year that’s passed <br />And, though I have missed all our times, through and through <br />I’ve not forgotten your beauty or class <br />And I pray for the moment when next I’ll see you <br /> <br />((December 25th,2011))<br /><br />Danny Speicher<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-ve-seen-beauty-this-year/
