Mine

I will always never
Need to be asked

You 
Wondering eyes
Serene skin
Soul on-point
Down-to-earth
Convicted of glory
Lovin’ the truth
Knows-who-I-am
Earnest genius
Preacher boy
Stoic sovereigness

Need to be asked
To invest in you

Happy

I know you’re wrapped in bedhead 
Blue
That I’ll never get my blanket
Back
That you don’t own a funny 
Bicycle
That a fast one, you are
But
I know I’m happy I never left you 

Finally At Last

I’d give much, save the sun
To watch what he’d have said -what he did say-
About all this
And where he looked when he said it.

What thoughts too, do the others share from the bottom of their dear hearts
-would you ever share them with me?

You. What about you?
Sit down, slap the ground and bid me come near.
What do you need me to know?

Quiver

Would that you’d write me
A love note I’d be
A breve note
A base note 
On violin’s strings

Ink my sweet heart
Quill to my skin
Join your hand
With my hand 
The wind ‘neath our wings

Despite The Hill

I will not 
Devise a grand plan
Stopping
Loving

The enthralled and free
Delusional and sane
Utterly and parsed
Pure and unholy
Life-giving and breath-stealing
Broken-down and built back up
Stricken and strong
Emptied out then flowing over

Way 
That I
Have loved
I cannot
