Notes About The Poem

Poetry

You are my poetry
and every word I know.
I can write sonnets
about how your lips 
speak to my soul,
and I always seem to
carry you inside me
wherever I go.

You are my poetry
lyrical caresses 
in my mind.
word spoken 
and unspoken,
both horrible 
and kind.

You are my poetry
hearts and stars 
behind my eyes.
loving you so deeply
took me by surprise.

You are my poetry
pentameters,
verbal description 
in panoramic
caricatures.

You are my poetry
because words mean 
everything.
you warm me 
in the summer,
and renew me 
in the spring.

You are my poetry.
loose leaf pages
in the wind.
our beginning,
and alas,
until our bitter end.

You are my poetry.
how more may I describe?
You feed me 
and nurture me 
and make me 
feel alive.
