i wish to look out upon a summer’s day
with you and me to catch colors and chills
& how i suffered for my sanity to catch swirling clouds
of bright blues and summer haze
i will paint a pallet dark & gray
watching shadows upon the hills
now i know what my heart tried to say
to me — i did not listen then but now
those colors of changing hue
and mornings of weathered faces
and lines of pain and now i understand
that while within a revere i was lost
//i caught a breeze and winter chill\\
you listen now? under flaming flowers
perhaps now? love listens now when i
stood alone upon a pier and watched
these beautiful stars tonight — i
watch the world and the strange souls i met;
like crushed beneath virgin soil and shall
they listen now?
Love gives much toward hope.
