The Center of the Core

Walking these streets, wet or cold, We run fast and reach for our all or more. The corner we meet, daring and bold. At last, I have found what I was looking for. Taking you deep into the night, dark but very clear, We’re dancing so sweet and wanting for more. The corner we fight, bracing our lack of fear. Still a Mountain of depths for us to explore! Bringing you up for your only air, brisk but bittersweet. Breathing fast and needing some of your more, The corner we share, honest and complete. At last, I’ve found the center of the core! Giving my life to live with your air freshly anew, Swimming with strife reaching for the only shore, The corner we give, our hopes are that of few, And still haven’t found that sweet nectar that I’m looking for! ®Registered: Ann Rich 1997
