I bud I am
So wrinkled cold
Feeble and old
Laying bare I am
A dream warm
Nibble and young
Sunning naked I am
This bird high
Sprout and spry
Wilting dry I am
So thirsty awaiting
Moisture’s loving lips
Exhausted I am
Stretching into desires
Breezing on midnight
That I did bloom
I did,
A flower I am,
A flower I am.
A flower I am
On the grave
Of my memory.

RIP
This reflection.

D.Lester Young,

This moves along well for me, I like it.

Super glad you didn't write it on company time.  My kind of guy.

Bobby
