it takes only one finger
this tracing thing
but it’s complicated
pressure and depth must vary
and we have been tracing each other for so long

lightly I trace coonskin cap
bullfrogs
boy smell
you trace
tiny ocean girl
seashell hands

I trace culvert sleeping desert boy
trekking with grandfather
soulflying
your quick finger traces
girl riding bareback
blackberry smile

we stroke the traces

my quiet finger finds
your first love
I can almost feel it
honey on your skin

fingers entwined
we trace
young mother
young father
smile our eyes
bound in this worship

your finger traces old heart hurt
just there above my wrist
I trace melancholy
till it clutches at my throat

fingers tracing
softly probing lives

you trace talk to soul
your finger presses
harder
deeper
traces michael love

  this is true?
you whisper

my smile finds your face

tracing stops

Tracing stops

My heart stopped too.
You ... make me want to gather all your poetry and put them in my treasure chest to read on rainy days. And on sunny days. And on quiet nights in front of the fire. And to carry in my heart. They are lovely.
