When Love Learns the Morning

Love arrived without knocking,
not as thunder,
but as sunlight finding the corner of a room
that had almost forgotten its own colors.

You laughed,
and suddenly the ordinary became ambitious.
Sidewalks stretched into invitations.
Windows remembered how to sparkle.

We gathered little moments
the way children collect smooth stones—
not because they are rare,
but because they fit perfectly in the hand.

Your voice turned busy hours
into open skies.
Even silence discovered
it could bloom between us.

Some days love is a festival of bright banners,
some days it is two warm cups
sending quiet ribbons of steam
into a waking kitchen.

We keep choosing each other,
not out of habit,
but with the delight of finding
our favorite song
playing unexpectedly in the world.

Hope hangs from every branch,
green and fearless.
Tomorrow waves to us
like a friend already smiling.

If joy had a compass,
it would point here—
to the place where your hand meets mine,
and every horizon quietly grows another sunrise.
