essential desire

I do not want you

Until you need me

treasured within

What do I own more than a heart . . .
that misses you

Oh! so very little . . .

Once upon a time

ThanQ for your wonderful love

the tangible

You are tangibly the greatest
evidence that I am alive

if I were . .

in the realm of sunlight

In the palm of my hand

If I could hold the world
In the palm of my hand

I would see you walking

Across the sand with waves
Carefully kissing you feet

at my window

a drop of gold

to be

I would desire to be

Not what you want

But whom you need

on the sand

I wrote for you a poem
in the sand

But the sea came in
and stole it

being real

My Faith validates my Reality


but I am only human

with only you

With you I would like to sit
and listen quietly


While you were talking I would be loving
everything you had to say

may I have

A little of your freedom . . . as

to invest in the Reality of Time

Alone with me today

a memory or is she my hope

As light you touched my heart

but is it the memory or a hope

that lingers still when the light

goes out
