Short Alton Poems

you lean back
like you always did 
and blow

wearing your bell bottom slacks
cool 
just like you always were

I hear you now
maybe I always did
I just didn't know

it's all I ever wanted  to do
paint a picture
lean back
see 
feel
and hear the music

so please understand
I'm not trying to be you

I'm just trying

Beautiful dreamer, I’ve been there before;
Beautiful darling, you’ve whom I adore;
You’re an angel, yes precious
In other words
You are more, more, more much more than beautiful
You are one just one of God’s many, many darling daughters
And I love you
I love you
I love you so,
Beautiful dreamer darling angel, in other words
 I love you so
