Colour of a blue eyed newborn's Iris sneaking itself through Marshmellow clouds lined With pink mother-of-pearl And my admiration. I want to touch everything. I work with my hands. I can build whatever you need, And am the best tickler South of the Arctic. I want to put my fingers through Anything beautiful I see. Always looking; Wanting to touch.
That which begs to be touched My mind caressing tree limbs Breathing in celestial counterparts To weave through this new configuration Third eye open Stumbled upon fathomless depths Unknown Wide brimmed, wide eyed Don't sleep, don't sleep So much yet to soak up To taste
That which begs to be tasted. Skin, warm with wanting, Wet with relief and Passing contentment. Lips that uttered Curses now kiss soft Fingertips tracing More love than Love has ever had. All is new To the reborn. Here are my hands. They see through me, Look into you, and rest Upon the centre of your Innermost centermost. An umbilical between Godess and Man. I smile mouthfulls Of everything.
Hopeful, hope filled The silver edge to this cloud Dropping rainbow 3pm's to halo Around my grinning skull I am simple in my sobriety Chrystal cut clear in winter yearning Seeing the forest finally for the trees These wonders reaching down out of the darkness Shedding light on this pale, pale mourning Nerve tips trace along your dips and curves Memorizing Mesmerized
And that baby-eye blue Is now a full grown heaven Full of sweet nothings And nobodys, Holding only such ideas as Void and timelessness In its handless hands. I watch it with you; arm Around your doll waist, Shoulder against your Head. It's a new day. A new, beautiful day. A new, beautiful, hopeful Day for us both. Pots of gold on either end Of this unimaginary Rainbow.
