How sunlight
Lamplight
Shines in your hair

The slow curve
Of emotion
As you turn

Your glance
The song
That is your voice
When from another room
I hear you call my name

Oh I am no fool
As well you know
There are many
Who think me hard

Let these ways I feel
About you being you
Be our secret
From the world

Many relationships appear different on the outside, some indeed having a "hard" exterior. The real ones have that perfect harmony and love inside. That's what I took from it anyway, I really enjoyed this write.

Thank you


Truth is I’m a last woman met poet;
she determines my lines; even my ostensibly
nature poems are no more than metaphors.
Men are marginally above machinery in my world;
they fix my car etc. . . . otherwise, (except for
one good friend whom I love as a brother), beyond
the annoyance and harm they can or will do
they hardly exist to me and don’t matter.

Thanks again


John
