One of my
Favorite things is
You as child
Monkey they called
You not because
You resembled one
But because you
Scaled trees there
You’ve always been
The monkey to
My gorilla just
A couple of
Primates that people
Admire in public

JustTheLove
And in darkness
Your voice bleeds
Memories of past
Laughter and ache
Sometimes someone does
Get in to
Even the hardest
Heart cold after
Years of betrayal
Here let me
Lift your spirit
To love again
Don’t be afraid
Of the heartbreak
Because the heart
Knows no pain
Bear (to Bean)
And like a
Hibernating bear we
Once again awakened
From the sleep
Renewed we stretched
And yawned once
Again searching for
The honey and
Berries of each
Other a new
Season of adventure
We waddled out
And squinted at
The future we
Are our friendship
Is like that
PresentPresent (to Bean)
It’s not the
Gift that you
Receive that’s important
It’s the fact
That you have
A present present
When you reached
Out to me
After six silent
Months I knew
Right then this
You are alive
And are happy
That you haven’t
Forgotten me and
That present present
Made the difference
That is love
PatiencePeace
I was blessed
With peace but
Patience not that
I prayed for
Now I have
It and understand
The calmness both
Bring waiting is
A profound blessing
I learned that
It’s best to
Allow a River
To free itself
From a logjam
Rather than me
Jumping pounding stomping
On the trees
Let the flow
Of your life
Free itself from
Complications have patience
To gain peace
