unexpected gift

unexpected gift

By Daisy Dai

the way the blue waves —glisten
as the sun glides across its blurry peaks
tiny ripples creating —glittery— 
speckles of light: little stars along its 
—shiny— surface

listen— can you hear
the water —crinkle— the wet 
sparkles gently —crunching
like the sound of balling up 
iridescent wrapping paper and 
playfully tossing it in the air

it reminds me of your eyes

the soothing icy cool —glimmer— 
of your sapphire pupils —twinkling—
steadily —shimmering
as I stand steadfast
slyly delighted 
at the way they 
waver up 
and 
down 
my body 

what an unexpected gift
