I said I knew something Of the way the earth revolved Round and round the sun In a hobbled sort of path That tilted first one axis Then the other towards Tongues of warm And how at equinox The distance were imbalanced Not quite pulling out the light The same as when all else Was in its wax or wane You smiled And told me I over thought things It was simple really Attractions And the way all things Find change As you began to undress the clouds And add your own softness to the light Then I realized my words were vain Efforts to capture how it was with you After so long denying to myself and God I would speak this way again As I wished to touch the air You breathed and the softness of skin But picked up then My pen turned Stained binding back To an empty page And wrote: “I felt the stir of you and began to know that I was not likely to be the one to make a difference or to provide the answers you deserved, but I would be thought of fondly when you remembered how it was along the way to Mercer’s “ So now let this chapter Begin |

You smiled And told me I over thought things It was simple really Attractions And the way all things Find change As you began to undress the clouds And add your own softness to the light ~*~ Oh, dang...touch the air, please! |

(you tell the story...we'll buy the gas) Poetry is emotion put into measure. |

Then I realized my words were vain =========================== oh no theyre not.... trust me poet sir... they are SOOOO NOT in vain. Efforts to capture how it was with you After so long denying to myself and God I would speak this way again As I wished to touch the air You breathed and the softness of skin SEE????!!!! *SIGH* ... So...all the moths are ready to go I brought a picnic basket, the fishing rods and the bait. Poetry is emotion put into measure. |
