The beam falls to your face
At dawn the day breaks open
Illuminating what I never knew before

You have taken a theme so common to the experience of humanity─light─and wrapped it into another of life's most common experiences─love. Such an undertaking by virtue of its sheer frequency is in danger of losing itself in overworn expressions and imageries. But here you have created an entirely new facet of beauty in the contemplation of these themes with the rich layering of the visual impact of your writing. Bravo!

You have fully fulfilled your goal to show the BRIGHTNESS TO EVERYTHING. As I read this the first time, I felt a glowing within me as well as the growing dimensions of light in the words. In a sense the final layer of light this poem unfolds was within me - that was the effect of your flowing words. And it is that flow that I felt strongly on a second reading. The second, third and fourth stanzas are one long sentence, a point of grammar which is important because it creates an almost breathless flowing of this love scene to its natural fulfillment in sleep (and dreams, no doubt) . The tenderness your poem displays is certainly a component of seeing THROUGH EYES WITH LOVE. I recently wrote a Love Poem with the intentionally overstated title AN UNEXPECTED MEETING FRAMED BY TWO SOLITUDES. It is a narrative poem. Your poem is also a Love Poem but in the category of a Lyric Poem. Our two poems, Lyric and Narrative, speak to each other in the happiness of achieved love.
