I have learned
In my life
That love comes
In waves of
Surprises like holidays
Each one more
Titillating than the
Last now my
Love comes as
Friendship like seasons
Erupting as flowers
Long ago planted
I have learned
In my life
That love comes
In waves of
Surprises like holidays
Each one more
Titillating than the
Last now my
Love comes as
Friendship like seasons
Erupting as flowers
Long ago planted
You know how
Sunflowers bob and
Weave following Saul
As he skates
Across the sky
As I did
You as you
Crossed the promenade
Yesterday maps camera
In hand searching
For that illusive
Monument confused you
Smiled asking if
I knew where
It was
Right in front
Of me I
Said making you
Fold into the
Chair beside me
An Orangina quenching
All your curiosities
And all mine
And then I
Really realized that
The lover that
I sought was
Me that I
Was the present
Present to be
Given and opened
That what I
Sought was here
And then the
World opened like
Origami doves that
Leapt into worlds
And I saw
For the first
Time the abundance
Of beauty love
And miracles that
This all is
Once I just
Simply knew me
Sitting outside a
Hawk sits perched
Eyeing me up
Magnificent and statuesque
It swings its
Head from side
To side my
Spirit animal I
Know knowing that
It knows me
As I do
It friends we
Are as close
As a balls
Throw this beauty
And I together
Learning each other
I may see
With my baby
Blues but my
Fingers have an
Eye of their
Own let them
Dance across the
Keys of your
Ribs into the
Pool of your
Tummy and the
Dimples of your
Cheeks and then
Let me paint
You with words
Replicating the art
That you are
For all the
World to read
