I didn't want to feel relief
(but I felt it anyway..)
I did not choose to hug my knees,
or grin in my lop-sided way...

I didn't mean to do my dance
of happiness before the screen...
I did not mean to weep, m'friend.
I did not mean to need.

Intensity,
of thought made blush.
Sacred silence in this now...
serenity
adrift in clouds--
"Dream sweet,"
I whisper
morning's vow...

We all need that friend on which to lean.  Thanks for exploring this wondrous scene.  Of thy friend helping thee.  It helps me see several pleas.   Great Job.

-serenity's screen dance-
So,
The trees were leaning into the street,
Clogging the storm drains, sapping concrete.
The thunder fell all about me,
But serenity danced behind her screen.

Lightning made the hot air worse --
At least twelve degrees more unbearable.
I thought my nightmares were bad, of course,
But this storm was unassailable.
And occasionally, when no rhymes were in force,
Made briefly unavailable,
I watched serenity dance behind her screen.

The night fell hotter still,
The moon was like a slivered rill
Of running water turning to dust.
I sweat so freely, I thought I would rust.
I lost so cleanly, I thought I would bust.
I watched so dearly, serenity dancing. In lust?

No.
Tonight, happiness is enough.

Well not bad for 5 am in the morning. I'm usually snoring so loud at that time that you could hear me in China!
