And finally spring
Has last arrived
And with the
Buds and blossoms
And sprigs and
Twigs and saplings
Came your hello
Your chagrin hesitation
Tickled me like
Dandelions held under
Chins your smile
Glowing on face
Sometimes people burn
As brightly as
Fields of wildflowers
And like echo
Called to canyon
Your hello came
Back a whisper
Surprised like curious
Pups I turned
Head cocked sideways
Standing and wondering
What you looked
Like if you
Were like me
Walking to the
Floor a clear
Pool lay and
In there I
Finally saw you
Looking at me
My own reflection
Rippling as frogs
Leapt from rocks
Into the water
I was hoping
For someone else
I know now
I’m my friend
I know that
You haven’t forgotten
Me
Neither have I
You
And that’s what
We have been
Me and you
And those things
Simply makes us
You me us
Oh and as
I hear Heaven’s
Lullabies whispering into
My ears I
Drift off nestled
Like hatchlings atop
Some far off
Tree safe from
The world below
Until I hear
A heart beat
Beating softly realizing
That it’s yours
You sit in
Front of me
My own one
Cup of coffee
Anticipated and steamy
Intoxicating and awakening
I warm my
Hands around you
I sip you
Slowly savoring you
Your robustness and
Slight bitterness as
You cascade down
My throat and
Into my heart
You my love
Warm me each
Morning from the
Inside out making
Me smile then
