Unending

In downy pink I watch you go
my sun,
at night you will pluck moon flowers.

In half-moon eclipse
the morning glory will wake me up
in dew, alighting whole night

on the rose branch. I still smell
your lips. The head aches in
singing dark.

Welcome again, my ghosts of new year.

Smile ~ As the mist gathers amid eyes of heartful Truth; when you know you care; when you know you love; when All you want for they, is eternal happiness, joy and love then, again, what was no longer exist for, it is the chain of sorrow which holds Hope within its bondage and, if one cannot learn to Love All of Creation then, fettered to rust this hope becomes and, "I Love 'You Satish, & All, Forever,'" John!:) ~

You see, sometimes when one truly cares or, comes to truly care, their love sometimes for various reasons, takes upon many different looks and faces, sometimes ~ Life, existence; it isn't about what Was, its Always about what shall be ~

Smile ~ "Sweeet Satish, 'Ow, But to Smile Into Your Eyes,' & Everything Is Going to Be Alright, If Only You Shall, 'Believe In Hope' &, Tis One of The Most Lovely In Tender Paintings of 'Your Beauties' Which My Heart Has Thus Beheld; 'Love, Always,'" John!:) ~
