When Love Came First But Took A While
Marinated Maestro. Simmered Sweetness.
You are summer sun and easy to love.
Dualistic principles
meant we were destined to meet.
Not my first blind date.
Third time lucky don’t look like this
and
I’m all in as far as investment goes.
Exhausted energies
a description that warrants modification.
I have traveled every emotion-highway there is
and built new ones.
I wanted better surroundings
ambiance
spice tea
waxing moon to control the tides
within me within you.
Chanted voices of the ancients
filtering through frustration as I wept.
It had been three excruciating days
yet you held your own.
Move on your time.
Promised butterfly flutters past cheek
and breeze-filled sails.
You are a love emerging
never before seen.
Seven pounds two and a half ounces of
ready to hold my heart in entirety
and change this world forever.
I understood your cries,
gasps at earliest manhood,
unsteady and frail after crossing
my body bridge between realms of life and un-life.
All who make the journey shine.
Wet and worthy of all blessings.
Infinite phenomena compression attempts
into one body.
Impossible?
Hmmm...
Still
I could watch all day since
you are summer sun and easy to love.
