St. Valentine

to my one love, "Heather":



that you'd find this letter

bound in worn, faded leather

my love carried by a feather

to you, forever my better.



These words read

will stay true long after I'm dead

when I'm ever asleep in bed

you are my water, my bread

even in weeks when I'm not fed.



In you is bound

all the beauties found

between the end of space around

all the way to the little ground

that finds my head laying down.



From Yours truly, "John",

I, the buck, you, the fawn,

prance your dance in the dawn.

in the sun's light is drawn

little lines of pure light surely spawn.
