However brief it was good to see you today,
may our next meeting
not be as fleeting.

You could make something small
tall
as a giraffe
with your soaring essence
and belly laugh.

If ever there is a time you think you're not brilliant
think on
for a while;
everybody loves you
and
your smile.

Yeahhhh...

I check my excitement
that little bit more
as the bus
gets closer
to you.
What was easily quelled drops of reaching ten hours ago have grown with revolution
of wheels;
increasing wooshes of joyful anticipation
held off
for now.
But benign subjugation won't last for long because I'll see you
and you'll sing our song.

Every time
I see you
I like you more than I did
when I liked you straight away.

As natural as you
is how I want to be,
moving before
formalised thought
into the you
of yourself
without thinking;
understood
as easy
as a season.

Something warm
occurs
when
you’re near;
simple fireworks work
and cover
the sky
with joy.
