IN OF ALL THINGS BEAUTIFUL*

Folder: 
JOURNAL #36

an entire summer of missing

well since July anyway

fell to the arms of this weekend

the minutes crawled after the hours

hoping to gather enough momentum

for Tuesday  to slam its way into place

yet here it is only a cold dreary

over cast Monday

and no such event

roused itself enough to occur

you in your world

I contemplate what that means

my mind's eye is so preoccupied

by that

almost parallel seems my demeanor

but only to me

as my thoughts are my own

and I guard them with glee

one day

I whisper ah yes indeed one day

but today is not that day

I am a one line lyric to

a song that has yet to be

completed

and what are you then

my melody

the catchy chorus

everyone likes to hum

perhaps

and then again

perhaps

you are just another

haunting lyric

all your own

waiting for the time

to mark your own line

'In Of All Things Beautiful'

our very own song

now

smiling a bit sentimentally

to myself

I reach back to a few days

past

and pet those memories

we made for each other

and skate my mind

across

lovely poignant lines

you wrote so recently

just for my heart's eyes

to hold onto and love

Tuesday can't come

soon enough

the eve before

you start a new life

the phase for us

I sigh

is just about to start

so smile my darling

love awaits us

to come home to

we each must merely

take that flight

and begin that journey

that will enable us to

sooner cross paths

dawn is breaking

so stay calm my love

for it is not so very long now..............
