She was a jigsaw puzzle from the start
every piece had to be understood.
Had to be
patiently, meticulously,
painstakingly
put together
to see her for her complete beauty

She was a kaleidoscope,
every angle revealed
a different
equally colorful, dazzling
aweing collage.

Her lips touching mine
forced me to reject
the notion that clouds are just
random collections of water
suspended in the atmosphere
but rather a mindless heaven
to float blissfully through
like over-stuffed balloons.
