I Knew It Was You Approaching -For Mcf
Here
it comes again
to where I always am...
waiting, watching, so hungry my eye.
When
I was alone
waiting in the wind of a different city
wearing the absurd clothes of my youth
I opened all the windows and doors
because I knew it was you approaching
Now
again you stir the air around me
feathered in like a sweet hot wind
singing, dancing
tumbling along
and yet
I am still
and you are always arriving
some how I always knew you were close
But you never
slow down to let me smell you,
hold you for a moment
like I remember
on the hill, in the sun
the circle of trees happening
something I can only glimpse
and some how I think you know
that the sun warmed our bodies
the trees circled around
and your eyes reflected the sky
on the hill
in the now and always
blazing summer day
