And then right
There with steam
Flowing from ears
Like a kettle
On the boil
You made me
Laugh and what
Started as heat
Turned to the
Sweet steeped tea
Of just us

ButTrees (to Aziz)
We are but
Trees in forest
Some will fall
By ax others
By saw some
By winds and
Some by pests
Until then we
Give shade air
And beauty homes
To creatures big
And small until
Our day comes
To go and
Make room for
All the others
Join Always (to Bean & Boo)
Just know that
When you sleep
I am with
You and always
InSleep (to Bean)
You have no idea
What I see
When you’re asleep
I see you
Unblemished how I
Want you to
Be this pure
Thing that I
Want to admire
And yet the
Closest that I
Get to you
Is in sleep
WindLove (for David)
I’m told that
I write often
About love for
Me love is
Like the wind
Invisible and moving
It makes leaves
Fall in fall
Snow blow to
Drifts in winter
Cools in summer
And brings rain
In spring and
Like wind if
We had not
Love we all
Would be simply
A desolate shriveled
Dry place lacking
Beauty and life
