When I give
You my heart
I will also
Give you a
Hammer if you
Cannot break it
Have it you
Simply will not

Let’s see now
I’ve got keys
Wallet sunglasses watch
Sandals sunscreen shorts
Shirts underwear socks
Pants cigars lighter
Cutter one red
One white corkscrew
Jacket and hat
The only thing
Missing you Bean
ThisMorn (to Bean)
There’s morning chill
Buzzing around me
Like plump bumblebees
God’s blue eye
Peeks through soupy
Gray clouds winking
Like attracted teenagers
Bundled in cardigan
Throwing open doors
Far off lilacs
Rush in bathing
Me in sweet
Aromatic mid-summer smell
Odors of coffee
And buttered toast
Join me here
Like old friends
Bringing me comfort
Knowing wherever you
Are you’re doing
The same things
Seeing the same
Smelling the same
Just as me

EarlyMorning (to Bean)
Early morning sky
Blue almost white
Three vanilla cloud
Streaks hover above
Like cigar smoke
Cool air trapped
Inside frosts panes
Like aging dust
Mid-July’s humidity brings
A damp chill
While coffee mugs
Steam and warm
Sipping ever slowly
Feeling it slither
Milk and honey
Walking to me
Sitting and drinking
Smiling and winking
Dressed in shorts
Red zipped jumper
Knees to chest
Warding off dawns
Early morning dew
