   Whisper Her Just One


The sound of air on the roof
crosses six panes of glass into moan
and stirs the leaf
whispering secrets across the patio

They think I can't say
the satin underneath the gay
in the place that was summer
changes spent true
but sent  twirling too
across the winter grass

I hear them giggle my expense
in only breathing words
to the passing shadow
what does she know they say of flying
or the taste of a tree

We dance not for her poetry
or the cave she has built for love
we are the bite that blinks her view
and opens up the keen unseen

See how she turns her eyes sideways
to cut the glare of our dare
we all danced and ribald with frantic air
she is dense with thought and too soft

Let us fun this sun in her doorway
until she dazzles the page with her loose muse
and makes a leaf treasure on the page of time
whisper her just one sound divine

Darn darn darn...IWIHWT....and you know I absolutely danced with it...

ok, ok, so I can only tuck it away to reread at my leisure...[what leisure?]...

sprinkle some of that pixie dust over this way, my girl....

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

and when her muse is let loose....there is no touching her ...
dazzel us over and over again...
we never get our fill of your whipsered treasures.
(you do know how cool this poem is dont you)

I'm like a broken record that you can play ...
Repeating (as if it matters) ... everything I say.
