You are the daze
in blue green eyes
smiling halfway
along the limestone walls
of quarried gifts
laid bare for all to see

where white cotton sheds
on rock beds, posing
from spontaneity

You are the miles
I ride
with feet dancing
in wind

Uncaring of angry clouds
in bold exposure

We are forgiven
when love breaks
across our faces

I would then race
to your window
freshly made for you

Wanting you deeper
in this reflection
than even I can fathom

Gee Reg, tearing down walls turns you into a real romantic, wonder what a complete house demolition would do to you? Kidding of course, as it was simply loverly!

wear my stone colors
dive in my dark water
swim in my echo places

let me wear your woman
with my wet hands
