Poem written by Benjamin Wiechel

"Casey"

Oh, for the beauty
Of such a delicate blossom
Shining in the sunlight
The beams bouncing off
Her beautiful red hair
Her eyes twinkling
Her smile brightening my life

I reach out to her
And take her into my arms
Holding her, caressing her
Softly, gently
Her skin a soft velvet
Sweet smelling as a rose
She smiles wider
Her eyes glistening

I lean closer
Closing my eyes
Our lips touch
Pressing gently together
A kiss of love
Of belonging
My heart opens unto her
Our bodies becoming one
A union of bonded souls

The kiss ends
My eyes open and I gaze
Deep into her eyes
She smiles cautiously
Warily

Realizing the marriage
Of our separate souls
Never shall we be apart
Ne'er shall there be secrets
A fearsome thought
For two so newly found

I place my hand against
Her velvety, soft cheek
And whisper to her words
Of comfort, of happiness
Her smile returns
Full-force
My heart sings loudly
My eyes lost forever in hers

I write this poem for you
Catherine Irene Ward
A touch of reality
A touch of wishful thinking
And an admixture of
My love, my longing
My caring
For you
Casey
My love
