for Geraldene
The **** is fine, relaxes the brain and softens the body
And I keep the fire burning for a now deceased lover
This was long ago, and now
In the present,
I live with my mother who doesn’t understand my cannabis habit -
Forgive her
It means I have to play the game of avoidance
Which is tedious
But I don’t forget Mom is elderly now and freedom
is a thing of the next generation
Nor do I forget to love my mother with all my heart
For she, with all her faults,
with all her faults
Has a heart of gold, (excuse the cliché poets)
And nor do I demand anything
For my own heart is full of years
And the “inner” child now
(having adulted) has the freedom to speak
And, and, one day flows into the next like the colours of a rainbow
And whose not to like (parents aside)
Getting ****** It’s healthy when you compare it to chemicals.
But to turn back the clock (and the poem),
I keep a fire burning for a now lost love...
We were happy together in the “forest cabin” of our affair.
Bless you, bless you beyond the grave!
