And in my
Sleep it came
Carried on the
Wings of angels
Insight and rest
It bathed me
In understanding like
A warm robe
After cool bath
We’re friends friends
That love kiss
And enjoy each
Others company we
Are tending each
Other like plants
Watering and pruning
Watching the other
Grow and Blossom
There’s no label
Or expectation simply
The knowledge that
We’re in each
Others lives and
This brings joy
Sitting here now
Basking in the
Over glow of
Last night I’m
Immersed in you
Like a sudsy
Hot bath my
Cares whisked away
Our lips met
For the first
Time many times
Last night tethering
Our emotions like
A dirigible moored
To tall poles
Now not only
Do I have
Your words but
The taste of
You with me
Early this morning
Searching no more
And finally found
You navigated your
Ship past craggy
Cliffs and onto
My shore exploring
Me with wonder
The mountains of
My shoulders the
Pools of my
Belly the dawn
Of my eyes
And the glaciers
Of my smile
I am your
New world come
Make me the
Home you sought
I think of
You now when
I’m not thinking
Of anything else
You arrive like
A post card
From a far
Off place heralding
Adventure you apear
Like an apparition
In the doorway
Folding into my
Arms like a
Cashmere scarf keeping
Me toasty warm
I am older
And like last
Years bouquet of
Wildflowers I retain
My beauty though
Different my fragrance
Is gone but
The memories of
My gathering still
Blooms and then
One freshly cut
Bud is added
To me making
Me blossom again
Like the first
