Happy
I counted each bone in your fingers as you ran them through my hair..
your lips played a merry tune I almost knew.,
and the soft warm winds blew through us,
in horizontal horizons too vast to comprehend.
The flowers in the field looked on, drenched in summer heat..
and I was content to let the minutes slip on by.
Oh how I love you, do you know that?
the days will find us here again and again
time will allow us this one request, I hope...
Are you hungry?, we could go and have some lunch..
we've already had our dessert.
No, she said.., let's stay with the flowers and let the sun have its fun..
a little longer won't hurt.
I like my friend happy, and happy was her name that day...
keeping in tune as her fingers continued playing..
The weatherman says we're going to get a storm, are you ready?
I am, she said, I've known so many before.
I smiled at her, and she smiled back..
and content to let it be..
and so glad my happy let me.
