This is dedicated to Joseph William Lewis,
the man who wedded me before a hundred folks
then moved me from New York City to big sky country of
Fayetteville, North Carolin where Fort Liberty ousted Fort Bragg.
You strolled into view, then Paused facing spot of solitude, of Therapy and grace i always knew I was only watching Sabbath's simmering sun, when You stared intently, then climbed the mound I sat upon Simmering before the Hudson River. My bike and I had had our fill Daylight warmth and Summer views had me lingering still, with Books, snack, courteous breeze ... Summer after Summer I'd known such tease Was it "My Tribute" song you heard? Spring rain does bring blossoming treats You appeared stating this: "I just thought I'd come to see why you look so happy." You had no clue the New Year was yet new, when I stood and watched not far from where I sat, Red heart, blue star, yellow smile on helium balloons Traversing wings of breeze with prayer I penned, and In zenith of Summer, your presence I saw, like Metamorphosis. You lingered and spoke as though you cared. Soon, with ease you fulfilled promises, then the engagement. I love the way you floated inside my mind You ousted the Ex who had been unking You showed me love spelled forever, and Held me in splendor of your warmth that December You made my coziness cozier, You showed me true meaning of together Now you're my Gulf breeze, strumming my chimes. *
