Again
this time silver-ing in places
Distinguished
Eyes shining
I find your features everywhere
Your mouth
The cadence in the way you speak about ironies that make you laugh
Your hooded brow in studied concentration over a worn hard cover book you're reading for the third time
Always seeking out another favorite passage, some gem, you might have missed before
I loved the slowness of time
Like the way you feel
moving slowly
through
Warm water
lapping your skin
Soft
And music played familiar
Like a #41
A favorite
For times like these
"I came in praying for you
Why won't you run"
Singing
In that way that gets the dishes done
Or eyes closed
Sinking into a couch
Limbs splayed
A book resting
On your chest
Foot tapping
The rhythm
And lightly humming
The melody
The light always dancing
Across
The floor
This dream is
Easy
And
Full
Its stunning that you can find such a perfect rhythm for your words. This one read out loud, is the only way to fully relate to it. So good. Thank you for writing
