I have suddenly
Realized how fortunate
I am to
Live in a
World of thinkable
Beauty and to
Sketch such into
Words for the
World to see
There is nowhere
To go from
Here besides on
I have suddenly
Realized how fortunate
I am to
Live in a
World of thinkable
Beauty and to
Sketch such into
Words for the
World to see
There is nowhere
To go from
Here besides on
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
The night outside
Glows through the
Slats of window
Softly as though
My yard had
Been blanketed by
A midnight snowfall
Or like Venus
Hailing its moon
To cool my
Night in subtle
Shades of blue
And gray as
I recall that
One night in
Curitiba on the
Beach as low
Tide tickled the
Sandbar beneath your
Naked silhouette while
The Orange dawn
Broke yellow upon
Your brown skin
