Poetry

(Dedication: For my wife Ann)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


My lover knows
Verse craft I write
In ample flow
Of lovely cites


My lover says
Words in a gist:
Love is the way
Beyond all lists


My lover sleeps
Here by my side
Murmurs so deep
In dreamy ride


My lover sighs
Beyond word touch
A poignant high
That says so much


My lover heals
In sublime ways
The way I feel
In plot and play


My lover hums
A simple song
And thus I come
To know what's strong


My lover is
The way I live
A feel of bliss
In gaze I give


My lover shows
With space most grand
That love can grow
Lover and friend


My lover grips
My hands and more
Blessing our trips
From precious shores
