akin
to absolute anything
these words of mine
pale
to glitter
like jewels
in your deeply attracted
mind's eye
your eyes
to my words
are
the tenderest thief
and I choose to lure them
regularly
as such a shameless admirer am I
you claim I overly praise you
where as
I see but my verses
as more so
vague sketches of your character
to me
revealed
tiny, amazing nuggets of wonder
amplified
with the grace of insight
amid the beauty of such sweet clarity
it is from spirit to spirit
in which I write
I can not tell any other tale
but that of which
in this particular way
to you
my inner fires
repeatedly
ignite
in this fragrant feminine form
I currently move about this world
and have purpose in
you are match to my flame
in every fire pit there is
and I, as like
the best sort of kindling
blend and burn hottest
with the raging forest fire in your soul
no other human could tame
proof positive
that even though
we now
separately stand
many nations and water ways apart
that our mutual merging
that of spirit entwining with spirit
repeats
often ever
again and again
the perpetual same
the loveliest work of God's Art
I am yours
you recognized me
'From Moment One'
and so very little
of this world can alter
this path we were put upon
you are the salt of the earth
that my own spirit has blindly
been scouring the cliffs
the shanty towns, the holiday resorts
the countryside, the coves,
the cave's rocky ledges
why even some European stores
hoping, searching, seeking
always reverently
praying for
the one who loves me and needs me
beyond all things beautiful
the one who has my back
and for my being myself
loves me all the so beloved more
that one force
in misused abandoned, neglected
misunderstood and abused male form
blindingly without question
beamed his light bright
above my darkening circumstances
and former norm
capturing me
adrift as I was in a cold, cold.violent storm
you did this for me
I unknowingly beckoned you forth
and you came
My own Orion
traversed the globe
for me
abandoning even his own beloved
night skies of the north........................
