a dappling of light
harnessed through
some shaded trees up ahead
tell me
can you see it in your mind
the shutter clicks
fast forward now
my ultra enchanted love
its 1999
you're home at last
harbored in the very bosom of
my finest regard
in your startled hands
in mid August
or somewhere there about
I suddenly bloomed to become
quite beautiful for you
in fact
when placed in your tender heart's
delicate care
while being caressed by your sweet
attentive eyes
gazing upon me via some mere picture's
glare
two months prior
I recaptured your fast escaping soul
and clutched it most desperately
to my tearful heart's breast
thirstily ecstatic was I
to fulfill this such sad soul's
painfully silent request
as we mirror
love's own finest infusion
and path the stones that arch delight
in her very wake
across our shoulders
love's ample drowning light
spills generously upon
this life's own living lake
our hearts have quite magnificently
come home to each other
fate releases her previous chagrin
to boldly now grin once again
at her perfectly orchestrated handiwork
to merely say after all this precious time
just the simple words I love you M.A.K.
seems so terribly pale to me now
instead
I would much rather confess
that I rapturously covet and long to
monopolize the very essence of you...........
