I Have No Poem Left To Write Tonight

I have no poem left to write tonight So upon blank paper I write a better thing These syllables that give my soul delight This alphabet to which your spirit clings Let me write you pure Let me write you sweet Let me write you sure As dawn on dawn repeat For those who live living is eternal What is mortal transpired by faith For those who love loving is immortal And joy becomes the bugle of fate We are poets and dreamers The world's first and last believers I drink hibiscus from a dreams soft tongue And sing the kiss no one else has sung
