There’s a sweetness, such a sweetness,
around the edge of loving you
bedecked with chocolate sprinkles
of long ago delights
and I stand looking down,
should I pull into myself
each slice and crumb of then
or just a taste to remain
on the edge of wanting more?

Today I play catch and throw
like a juggler in a park
and keep my eye on moving parts
until it’s time to know
which way to go to keep the flow
between today and then.

But of the flow I do not know
why it seems necessary
except perhaps to speed my pass
up into the sky
where the juggler of a better life
waits with steady hand.
to catch the all and everything
you made happen easily.

There’s a sweetness, such a sweetness,
around the edge of loving you
arranged to stimulate
and excite my moving parts
to repeatedly devour
and forever keep inside
each slice and crumb of you!
