Finding love changes everything
and look how beautiful the world
when brick walls disappear
and the mind stretches further than
the perimeter of life.

There is weightlessness beyond the mass
of erogenous zones
and a merging uninhibited
by performance goals
yet not enough the mind returns
time and time again
to its life sentence.

And internment stretches years
because the finding too soon
prepares but never satisfies
all the human senses
and soon the need of touch
digs holes to bury love.

The dig can take a lifetime’s work
but I dig, we dig, you dig,
and shovel in the dirt
as a means of giving ignorance
a place of merit, worth.

Finding love changes everything
but not so one can know!

Thank you dear angel on earth!  I'd probably explode if not for "poetry" which is one of the two things I know of that relieves the pressure.  

Have a wonderful festive season and I look forward to the spread of your wings in 2008, i.e. your uplifting poetry.
