Devotion Poem, Into Paradise
Devotion Poem, into Paradise
(For Jim)
——————
a grassy path where
I become a cool tapping rain
You wipe your cheeks
I live in your eyes
my heart’s wished paradise
bottomless azure seas
the feel of thunder —
years’ collapse in golden leaves —
your arms’ enfolding
carousel ‘s caught sparkling rings
truths of paradise
forever flies
an angel by roses
lent her wings
my pace rides a song aside you
