letting it be

the sun rose in the mountains
pushing past red clouds of dawn
I watch with coffee--my day begins
as the nightingale hushed its song

darkness fades and light reflects
on the pool of deepest blue
the softest smile upon my face
remembering the swim with you

quiet and peaceful I reflect
on all you bring to me
my heart swells where our love dwells
thanking God for letting it be

So much feeling in so little verse. It is nostalgic though I know not why.
