Ali

soft skin, green eyes, dirty-blonde hair,
that's what my eyes see at first glance,
light distorted as my eyes adjust and,
a golden beam of Sun's ray,
finds a path thru my vaneesian blind,
enhancing the bangs that sweep across her brow,
all she knows now is joy,
she knows nothing wrong,
she knows not of deceit, murder, crime,
nothing of drugs, vengeance, none of that crap,
I will make sure this time,
I protect her from what is outside,
of this bedroom, this morning,
THIS TIME!
staring at God and my creation,
I thank God for not being blind,
grateful for everything,
including the bad in my life,
for God has blessed me with three beautiful children,
and one-awesome wife.
