welcome!
cries
such triumphant recognition
so blessedly golden
shines my mind
how you bustle about
just to kiss
my every moment's new day
with your warm
glittering awareness
reopened
oh at last
is this once gaunt
withdrawn refugee
from your mailbox
fed so fully now is she
sentimentally sated
starting first
with the wanting chambers
of my former miserly soul
why you breath in my very wishes
and make them your very own
as you linger to embrace my disbelief
I dance so strangely shocked
still quite agape
that I am almost high on my own
amazed amusement
quite willing though to languish in
your enveloping surge of such
swellingly sweet and so very precious
heart's heated light
fairly fractured now old ideas
of poetry
manage to mature
to weave further strength
throughout the lines and seemingly
endless pages
I've so too, grown
from the lending bloom to such
gathering greenery
gathering all the while about me
without my having any such prior
related knowledge
what an amazingly so loving gift
such generous, gay, gentle greenery
growing it would seem everywhere
I even unconsciously peer
so guilelessly graceful
such color sways undaunted
upon this infinite hill of keenly
reinvested time
the captor it seems has swiftly taken
on the role of the captive
and his sea softly beckons the suddenly
sweetened breath of the balmy breeze
breathlessly begging it
please!
take me up and up
into the wide open arms of those
marvelous trees ahead
let me drink in the joy
why, such tremble touches my startled
knees
as so very misty now I feels I
as for so shall be
such bandaged by and by
for once there
we too love free
that where ever they be
such beautiful bark, branch, roots
and leaves
all blending gently into each the
other's susceptible will
close your arresting autumn eyes now
M.A.K.
and with your spirit choose to see
such glorious stainless illumination
crowding out the trivial
as she considerately sweeps
away at the cluttered floors of grief
and tirelessly scours the mutually
shattered windows of the formerly felt
feelings of such dire disconnection
know that
among all that senseless waste
and debris left by a thoughtless
society
here
in all my former esteem
(and then some)
I stand
even more so now stripped bare
before you
no longer just an inmate in your mind
cowering among the handful of far too
confusing dreams
but just me
quite alive indeed
and so very soundly real
your Miel
just as you named me such
(sweet)
fresh
just now
from an even fresher bath
of such immodest jubilee
quite ready
rather willing in fact
once again
to start rocking your
reality
the gladness in my heart
could never fully reveal
how so very truly thankful
I am
that you never allowed yourself
to marry
after all
such an undeserving she.............
