Kim Rodrigues Poet Rhyme

Wishful Encounter

     i wish for serpentine waters
     i wish for stormy skies
     i wish for a playful river
i wish for you and i

     i wish for stupendous sunlight
     i wish for inkblot shadows
     i wish for tremendous colors
hues that makes us cry

     i wish to appear invisible beneath redwoods
     i wish to vanish below their verdant foliage
     and hear the sparrows populate the forest with song
as we release a mutual sigh

     i wish to feel the wind touch my lips
     and the moon quake with weakened pulse
     as the flaming campfire of dusk dies out
and our spirits brave goodbye
