Although he whispers sweet with poems that ring true I still hear your voice, my mind still pictures you. The changing of the seasons seem lusterless these days knowing you won't be there coloring autumn's haze. When winter rolls around and I decorate the tree I'll be dreaming of you smiling here with me. When stars become supernovas the earth a darkened moon I'll finally forget if I forget that soon.

Core, your response poem reminded me of an old response poem of mine that turned into a collaboration. Still Night ~ Does the wind still blow my touch across your face, and sweep the hair from your eyes? ~ . The wind that blows across me now . blows touches that I can't recall, . and yet they're etched inside. ~ Can your mind still gaze upon sunsets fresh from memory, without sensing my presence in each fading ray? ~ . The sunsets here have beauty, but . the warmth has set before the sun . has made it's daily slide. ~ Will the moon still hold the same moment when wrapped in blankets we tiptoed in flesh to bathe in the oceans tide? ~ . Those silver beams reach out to me - . they play upon my memories - . they warm my thirsty flesh. ~ When still night approaches is it my caress you remember that satisfied the innermost part of your spirit? ~ . I still, at night, recall your touch - . how tender passion fed my blush . and thrilled my soul with rest. ~ Is it my name you still whisper when drawn into the bed of love making, and is it my face you see reflected in her eyes? ~ . Oh, yes! The nights claim such faint sounds . when I breathe out that precious noun, . and see you in her eyes. ~ © S.M.A. 1/18/98 / RAM 1/31/98 |
