Star Gazing By Nicole Brown (GRADE THIS ONE)

As I lay here by your side on your old, beat up blanket in the middle of my backyard, I wonder how you shine just as bright as the stars. Then, my thoughts start to wander, and I start to think all about you. Your personality draws me in like bait on the end of a fishing line. Your heart is as wide open as a child’s eyes when he presses his nose up against a window of a candy store. Your hair reminds me of the golden rays of the sun, and makes me wish for a summer day. Your eyes glisten like the sun spread across the warm summer ocean and the way your eyes look at me, you give me such a warm feeling inside of my soul. Your loves gives me butterflies in my stomach whenever I see you and you’re the only one who can make my heart beat faster and slower at the same time. I start to daze out of my dream world and look into your eyes as bright as my Christmas tree lit up for the holidays. The stars shine off of your eyes so perfectly; I begin to get stuck into your forest green eyes. Your dazzling eyes always remind me of your love for hunting. You look back into mine, and I notice the love and affections within them. Your luscious lips lean in for a kiss, slow and gentle, and softly peck mine. I get lost in the moment and wish I could be stuck here forever. Your lips taste like the strawberries grown in my backyard, and I long for the taste again. As we lay back down onto your childhood blanket, we begin to stare back at the glowing stars. Then, suddenly a shooting star passes by; I wish to have endless nights spent with you, just like this. I search for the moon, which is just a sliver of pie tonight. I turn toward you once again and your welcoming arms open towards me. Your arms wrap around me tight, like a koala bear tightly wound around a tree. My eyes begin to shut and I fall asleep in your loving embrace. Please God, let this amazing person stay in my life forever.
