The Now of I Love You

by R. Ellis


Blue falls on the river
tonight falling and recoiling
in a splashing wave of stars
like frozen rain.

I miss the most of you that
I know which is a little piece
of something small but powerful
No burning flames no one the
sames just the now of I love you.

I like your simple statement - "something small but powerful" - because that is how it usually is. Says a lot in few words. Congrats on the selection. daver
