"Just Before Sharon Sleeps"
by Jeph Johnson
How do I invest
interest I've compiled,
Favoring moments
underneath your smile?
By choosing occasions
that savor your content;
Temperate and solemn,
Without guilt or regret.
A resounding symphony
rides the distance in your eyes.
It orchestrates the morning
by exceeding the sunrise.
While silently your efforts
begin to harmonize.
The resolute dawning
you parallel soon dies.
