I carry brimming buckets
of sunlight in the night
with my hands over the top
so none spills or even shows
and I feel the warm under
on my palms that love you

when they climb the pole
you gave me to get to heaven
when you are entertaining others
with the back bend bow
and bosom full of crickets
rubbing their legs

when your eye music seeps
from some egyptian windowless view
of cypress trees entwined
in a windless worship
of pyramids playing tents
over a one man army

waving his sheathless sword

tried so to highlight one sentence, which turned into a paragraph and then the entire poem became my favorite...a love read filled to the brim with sensuous...kind, and caring.  Thank you sir and a jolly good day to ya....

Among the kingdom of the winds ...
perhaps there is one of elegant mind,
who has no need to intrude on the solitude of single things.

That was pretty cool, but I do believe if it hadn't been Moses it would have been another.  This poem is cool.  I kept expecting you to say something specific and it's like it left you hanging, wondering.  Cool.

There is sound in lines like these...
a low, crooning, sighwhispersound...
