The words you release
dance across plains
mountains and lakes
picking up speed and energy
reaching me with enthusiasm
the words fill my toes with excitement
traveling up buildings exuberance
hope and power
releasing in anticipation

The Calm
I want to be next to you
nose to nose
Quiet
the sound of your breath
echoes over mine
the pulsing of your heart
pumps a calm rhythm
soothing the day away
and you are looking at me
I swim in your gaze
The calm
is through you
Small Moments
To watch for a moment
a skillful hand
To see an opening
to a life hidden
The music of a soul
and the magic cast
All seen in the blink
and small moments
Sour Milk
Collect your rocks
Create a pile around your feet
Spend time polishing
Then watch them roll away
Pour a glass of milk
Place it on the table to share
And wait for them to accept your offer
Only to watch the milk turn sour
Paint the pictures
Hang them in the gallery
Offer tickets for free
And still no one comes
Cried on the Porch
I displayed moments of my personality
you kept them in your corner
I made my echoes heard in the room
you manipulated the sound with windows
I drew lifetimes onto the walls
You ripped down the wallpaper
I walked out the door
And you shut it behind me
I cried on the porch
And you had moved away
