"How Should I Liken You?" (by Joe DiMino)To say that you are sunshine
Or as starlight
Would not say much,
Just the old of you
Though charmingly cliché;
Nor will I liken you to moonbeam
Even one too singular
For capture and contain;
One the eye would need slow,
Necessarily dim
To reveal such illumination,
And by then the real spark is gone;
For you are far more illusive a light
One hell cannot use
For ignition to kindle to blaze then smother;
Nor heaven rain-in, take back
A beloved gleam having escaped
Far independent of the fold
Noyou are mine,
With intimacy only God an I
Will ever know
