Standing there amidst
dew drops and
sun showers and childrens
laughter, I saw
you from across
oceans and the heavens
languishing,
staunch as a single
Harlem Rose.
If I were to capture
but an inkling of
the strength
you heave in
each breath
you breathed through
Eve's parted
lips I
would carry your
load and
mine and yours
again
as Atlas if but only
to allow you to
lend your bare hand to my face.
If my lips were
to be as free as
my pen, birds would
recite my love in song
and perfume all the worlds
air with its' fragrance.
It was all I could do
not to
reach out
across the abyss,
the oasis that lay
between us
and draw you to me
and give Samspon his leave.
If only the angels who
carry my heart
in whisper
across this universe
would gain audience with
the stars that dance when you smile,
you would hear the
whole
true
story.
My two cents
