Smile (for Ramón)

I’ve learned to

Listen to my

Smile for when

I think of

Yours I do

The same as

You do when

You’re with me

LovesRiverlet

Sometimes my hope

Does freeze like

Long icycles hanging

Off the eave

My heart chilled

By my heartache

But then the

Warm breath of

A hello begins

To melt it

Causing once again

The spring of

My heart causing

Loves rolling riverlet

OneThingYou

One day I

Will find one

Thing not many

Things and not

All things and

This one thing

Will sing the

Sweetest melody and

Light the heavens

By the tiniest

Of twinkle and

Make the dolphins

Giggle and leap

And the bear

Stand and roar

One day I

Will find this

One thing you

AloftUs

There are very

Few of us

That wish to

Be clipped caged

Instead we seek

To soar on

Invisible thermals above

Peaks spying the

Smallest things possible

Below us and

Then as we

Swoop we see

Garantua bigger than

Us and cower

But we are

Eagles meant to

Command and take

Even with words

Be my prey

And read me

Let me soar

Come with me

Aloft up high

RainbowFriend (to You)

When I think

Of my friends

I think of

A colorful pile

Of leaves each

One vibrant and

Each one a

Mystery but when

Brought together a

Cacophony of color

Creating a palette

So rich that

Even a rainbow

Remains very jealous
