FROM A RIVER CLEAR

Folder: 
JOURNAL #29

dear guv'nor

how do I describe you for me

perhaps by labeling you a flute

in the string section

though I know you play a sensuous sax

or rather a hybrid of intellect and

tenderness

who's deeper feelings no modesty

could negatively address

maybe I should confess I find you

a spoon in the fork drawer

who ladles such good mental nourishment

well into my bowl

you are a sweet as hell savage rogue

that the likes of the 30's Flynn

couldn't play

even if he phoned in the role

mystery yet unique openness

blended in a scorcerer's hurry

eager to indulge and partake in our

exquisitely unsophisticated reparte'

I hold the idea of you dear

in a fond

far away, way

to me you are but water from a river clear

sweet distraction slaked

at the bar of a computer's keyboard

tray

so smile broadly now for me dear

as your "Darlin" has you sir

in a manner marked

most deliciously appealing

to her..............
