PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

my dear amiable consort

he, that works twice as hard

as three men half his age

please note that I, (your Miel)

cherish this fine, fond mutually

desirous friendship

that we each for the last 13 months

or so

have so finely tuned together

for the other 's doubtless enjoyment

it is truly sad for me to say this

but you will likely die

never fully knowing

at least to any significant degree

just what you have added to my life

but note that then means

I can spend all the rest of the days

we each have upon this fine lush tundra

trying my impossible damnedest to tell you

of it myself personally

like just now

from this paper of mine

to your tired eyes

or in four short months

from my too often riske' lips

to your highly educated ears

please know that what I say is the

undeniable truth

my dearest of all sirs

for me, you equate such love

such highly inspired unadorned yet fresh

and constant love

pure and simple

why with you on my side

in any endeavor I choose to

immerse myself in

tell me then

how could I ever go wrong

the answer is clear

with you in my corner

to whisper such lengthy and encouraging

confidence in my ears I couldn't lose

oh, how I have needed this incredible shot

of you in (what must have seemed like

such a) direction less life

maybe

to speak in boating terms

I should call you

my newly acquired Rudder..................
