Someone, Somewhere

Someone, somewhere, swung for me, Out of sight, a secret kept; And I, in turn, awaited she, My feelings gloved, sedated, slept. Someone, somewhere, rose anew, Stirred the ashes, struck the chord; And I, with stagger, stumbled too, Flipped and corkscrewed overboard. Someone, somewhere, grazed the fuse, Brushed and blew the dormant hearth; And I, restored, adored such news That spread a wildfire aftermath. Someone, somewhere, took my hand, Declared and proffered love unbound; And I, her captive, understand The someone, somewhere, I have found.

I am feeling the urge to go back and read poetry from earlier writing of my favorite poets today and this is the one I opened of yours Tony. I truly enjoyed reading it today and it is one of your best. Love, Carol
