Old
Dirt road
Pick up truck
Blue jean baby
 By my side, Harvest moon lights up the night
My tailgate down, our swinging cowboy boots
A Gentle breeze
Sweet kisses
You and
Me....

in tantra dream
with grace, unction, spilling visions ingrained 
escaping a world of flesh and desire
a new born crawls
innocent

Strong
spirit
faithfully
uncomplaining
thus, you have been since your beautiful birth

Once a soft and cuddly baby boy
