Once red with desire
white flesh bounding no brown spots.
I felt the
once I knew you,
though you passed
from hand to the other yard.
When
30 years could not see
another love
for another tree.
Our life's have seen many
more
since, when the clouds
from that time
watched.
We both knew the color of the sky
then-
what we lost
and tried to reach.
Will those days ever
reveal the truth
from what we felt?
known to the coming
tomorrow,
or to die with this sorrow-
will.

If nothing is something
then everything is
our thoughts and feelings
and all that exists.

Good Lord, I will forever adore these lines:

We both knew the color of the sky
then-
what we lost
and tried to reach.
Will those days ever
reveal the truth
from what we felt?
known to the coming
tomorrow,
or to die with this sorrow-
will.

Thank you~
