Stretch and bend
bend and stretch!

she must think
I'm elastic.

The sun
conserving energy
decides to rise,
but slowly.

I am aching
too much bending
must try stretching more.
You always preferred your coffee black,
Strong and hot and stable,
I would sip my tea across the kitchen table.
Silent moments such as these,
Would make me feel my most at ease.
But now all that's left is tea.

Reminiscing in the *******
A medicinal tradition, transient wishes
Flowers and seeds, transitions of power
5 miniature needs, Sign out of line
Time went tock tick, Just tell me you're mine
You're on me, a tick, **** from my soul
Fly on my wall, Don't die for this goal
I'll watch you forever, And catch you in fall
Release comes Whenever
Yet never, at all.

Sun-rimmed
& splendorous
this afternoon of us
barefoot in the grass
...
Noontide escapade
& pageantry
the mural on the wall of your heart
says you agree
...
Loving outside of ourselves
constructs the nook
I feel what you feel
Sehnsucht
...
There's an au fait air
between this man & wife
bound in codex
this breath of life
Sehnsucht [ˈzānˌzo͝oKHt] : yearning; wistful longing.
