FOR CYRUS, MY SOUNDING BOARD

Folder: 
JOURNAL # 41

with your perfect mellifluous pitch
you proffer opinions on my shared
latest gift
for with the, there is much to sift
ever widening the depth of my smile
as we discuss line, meter and meaning
as such
I angle for your intentioned ear
I seek out your light and spark
that wonders near
a haven, your company to me has
been
reminiscent of some spiritual stirring
indebted to you I have become
for this easy to follow pattern
our individual intellects have chosen
through many a pathway complicated
the traversing takes precedence
over the arrival to any specific destination
how easily you remove the blankets from
questions
to focus in on the necessary eye point's
direction
we are two star bursts launched in
a fantastic cataclysm
collaborative colliders
one might admit
ulta eager to gather
a finer momentum

for each his own seeking spirit................

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Written for my good friend Cyrus who always likes to discuss poetry with me, especially my poems. His imput helps me many times to see something is not quite right. Like, I must change this one word around or ommit it completely. I never had that for many years so it's so nice to now have it. I am thankful to have met him so this is my poetic tribute to his contributions to my life. Enjoy your poetic introduction to him.
