You are1
The yellow topaz of the eyes of my tiger2
The first footprint on the face of my moon3
The gold discovered at the end of my rainbow4
The well-worn clichés of my love song5
The fastest download to crash my desktop6
The shuffled playlist of my I-pod7
The most used letters in any alphabet8
The teaspoon of sugar stirred in my coffee9
The frosted topping of moist carrot cake10
The spicy filling inside my sandwich11
The flag erected on the summit of Everest12
The smooth caress of a morning sun13
The hot sticky sauce over melting ice cream14
The stroke of vintage slipping down my throat15
The sweetness of donuts glistening on my lips.16
But what you are and always will be17
is nothing less than you.18
