wherever now
your story waits
with no regard for years
where touch is felt –
I was made
to find you here
where every word
is silenced
by the music of a sigh
breath beneath the
shadow of a shiver
mine
remembered me
this holy grace –
pressed against
a dream
wherein this evermore
I recognize
just the same
tho not the same
I find you like the first
familiar
unfamiliar
as the pull
of ancient skies
. . .

there’s a point
where words have no memory
no rush to confess
what was lost
a fire burned out
petals retreat
retuned as a moment
eternity kept
apart from the sinner
devoid the saint
– with only
the heart
to remember
. . .

i’ve spent nights
ten thousand more –
in shadows of the moon
suspended just below
the milky way
awaiting you a wish
cast your line
to me –
sail beyond
to oceans you can’t see
where came the news
you’d understand
and want me here the same
as the night
we found each other
in the stars
. . .

how much of you
a part of me –
sands atop
the floor
as blossoms
where the trees have
burned away
how much of verse
is nothing more
than once
you were
and I
was counted back
in syllables
emptied to a page
folded to
a memory
the lineage of truth
someone said
tho I’ll be damned
if I remember why
the road
was less
the day you left
the sun no longer shines
to fill between
the whispers
rusted oak and flesh
how much I have
surrendered
was your breath
becoming mine
. . .

have your hands
remembered mine –
late nights
in the kitchen
or praying to our shadows
tangled on the bed
do your lips
recall a promise
the taste of heaven here
sweet the hallelujah
come to me
does your heart
revert
to beating
as another knew you well
a touch denied
when I was come
a fortune
yet to hold
forever still
the place we love
remains beneath
the cedars
softened by the memory
– as once
we are
again
. . .

when the wolf
is come
for answers
growling at my door
returned to find
his favored bowl is clean
i shall whisper
to his madness
make sense of every need
i shall sing
into the sorrow
of his want
when come for me
i remember well
the way it felt
returning back to home
to find the weeds
grown up
the cupboards bare
i remember tears
can taste them now
how sweet their recompense
for losses
far too many
to repair
. . .

had i reached
for you
as skies grew dark
had i felt
the world subside
within my nest
(a third bedroom)
pushed against
your sigh
had i known
at once
the night birds
call
had been silenced
by a breeze
(surrendered
silent) heartache
for the trees
had i reached
for you
. . .
18 Friday Mar 2022
was a time
you were waiting
the first alarm to ring
would pull me
from my dream
into your arms
into the warmth of sunrise
burning me your skin
restless in our
promise
to begin
wrapped inside
a silence –
the measure of a sigh
intimacy
with barely room
to breathe
touch is come
reminders
of the night we’ve
passed beyond
forgotten now
the fleeting thought
to leave
. . .

were a lifetime
one more sunrise
a sparrow
taking flight
a word to rhyme with missing
arms to fit just right
another stay
the night for breakfast
if they worry
I won’t care
for a lifetime
one more sunrise –
waiting there
in dreams
where dreams are tarried
fragile breath
of candle light
as promise made –
a sparrow
taking flight
. . .

everywhere I am, grace, life, living a better story, love, places we have loved, reminders of me
when last I dreamed
I lay awake
and wandered unto home
the safe and sweet
embrace
once was you
tell me now
some other time
of who you are
and why
you knew my name
before I thought
to love
