silver mercury
cougar quickness embodied
american muscle

nothing really owned
only your spirit inside
love generously

youthful dreams fullfilled
springtimes eternal promise
looking back fondly

many moons ago
summer heat would never fade
wishing for the cold

leaves restless rustle
cooling winds fading to brown
frozen ground below

i walk in your light
darkness, around your shadow
inside, your love shines

empty faces
unfamiliar gazes
sheep grazers
pointed lasers
etching razors
on bleeding skin

captivating gaze
mysterious smirking smile
through da vinci eyes

your hot steamy breath
yesterday’s roast with gravy
betrays your mother
bear dog is fat and happy
stealings munchies from pappy

hello sunshine
you always brighten my day
and warm those cold nights
