this has been as a

walk -

 

life with you

 

mythical/

 

in its endurance

 

- a petal/ becomes a cosmos

 

a worry wort looks at flowers

to push the residual

bits and pieces to life - a sense of beauty.

 

who in a notebook fails to say or record

simple fact:

 

cruel father, bears gentler child ( your

love of plants, the fertile hard fruit you'd

place in the sun like you did the other day, like you did

over 30 years ago, reminds me

 

of my own need

 

my short comings lead ...

you see it cannot be said, remains a wish

 

yet real love proclaims it

in the silence of our bending

to water plants, to touch (Iwas never

good at, being of such family I'm in strange opposition to

tho no less love.

 

body & soul, now proclaim it

- accurately as

carving to yield a cave

 

times cave with light near the end
