Poems and Poetry: Gorgeous Tints

You turned the ashes of my life

Into beauty; my mourning into joy

You’ve transmuted my most sober

Hues into the most gorgeous tints

Your presence in my life is a tonic

Which has invigorated me and

Helped me bear the burdens of life

Your coming into my life is like

The coming of sun after a long,

Cold, and dark night

Your smile act upon me like

Magic dispelling all the fog of

My gloom and despair.
