Just A Brief Statement


this time just
a brief statement
the moon choose us
phase of new tide
with waxing a halo
in moonlights dripping
precarious victory
an angel’s trumpet
he has no mold
yet can cast shadows
on the darkest night
along the curve of
the cup of his hand

"no darkness has ever been deep enough to extinguish my personal knowledge of love"  Anne Rice

"yet can cast shadows
on the darkest night

the cup of his hand"

fine as a piece of bone china Helen
and as exquisite

I would love to say that Kate took the words right out of my mouth, but I will just say I wish I had written it.  Beautiful like the poet.
