The World Poem by Margaret Ann Newcomb

From your eyes the light shone
as the sun on the sea.
Your smile caught me in slow motion
Surrounded by elements,
you were magic itself
and my heart lept to see
the world so happy with you.
The wind loved dancing in your hair.
The sun loved warming you.
The waves loved rolling and crashing
on the beach for you.
The gulls and I were envious
of your friends.
And somehow, in all the world's adulation
I was clear enough for you to see,
and blessed enough to be the one
that you see the world so happy with.
