with your welcoming light
gifting illuminous sight
what have you brought forth
an awakening
to move and to hope
in the woe of day
but upright I fear not...

but give them today
Entrance them
with verses
that pause and delay

Punch them out, and don’t cut slack
For fame is just one measure
That marks a poem a treasure
So keep on gifting poems uplifting
Well deserving of preserving
Each one placed inside some album
For descendants as an heirloom....

tones of sepia-golds and verdigris.
The cirrus seems content with its

Our gateway through the darkness

Wrapping the words
in silence 
tying them with a bow
Gifting them to
my other self
waiting still to know
Leaving them
at the doorstep
of one I’d chased so long
A thank you note
has just arrived
— those words turned into song
