I was not the first
nor last
nothing but an in between
of something
and somewhere
he had been
and was to go
a memory for his future


In tall sway of grasses
spying from afar

I was everything I thought I was not

Field where lovers lay
for strolling mind to recollect

..A moment across hours..

How your skin changed in sun
or was it my biased eyes
worn bronze
with the gold of summer afternoon
painted thick
with my content

You were not the first
nor last
to skim my lips
yet the only
to fill every inch
of my understanding
with blue~sky~completion
