Love This Game
For my husband, a true fan.
It's like this:
After a long climb,
we finally reach the upper deck
and step through the arch
into another world --
the green field spread below us
like the prologue of a new book,
the geometry of a story to come;
the hum of leisurely bustle,
the wheat-field undulation
of bodies stirred
by the same breezy dream,
all immersed in endless sky,
a gentle blue ocean
that will glide us into purple majesty
and secret stars.
It is our world,
our story,
our passage into a time
unknown yet already beloved.
Beloved,
this is what it is like
to wake to a new day
beside you.
