The Personal Touch

Why do I take you so personally?
Like a bridegroom waiting evenings bed.
Like a thirsty man near to dead
Like a randy dragon dramatically

You paint my wings such colored hew
Glowing in the mornings light
Banishing my thoughts of night
Soothing me with nectars dew.

Can’t you see my eyes aglow?
Following your every lead
A beggars bowl in full need
A calming drink of old crow

How long can I bath this sun?
How long can I swathe its store?
The ghost of time opens its door
And when I pass it will be done.

Why do I take you literally?
Like a randy dragon rascally

======================================


Wise men tell us ... "why ask why"
question not ... the suns gift to the sky
Wonder not ... the tides on sands of time
Ponder not ... the reason behind a poets rhyme

But if thee takes the words to heart ... literally ...
Then thee knows that each one ... is kissed with sincerety.

Well tomorrow holds only mystery
And who's to say what might be
But in you I found a love so strong
The sun and the moon looked on in jealousy
