SERENADE TO A FRIEND
My heart,swollen to near
capacityfrom your
tenderness and
nurturing,awaits and
alightsupon
youth--filled
momentsbecause
not just
anyonecan ignite
thepassion redeemed
frombanks of
hillssplit open wide
withsharpened blades of
fiery
sunand because
not just
anyonecan take
my pains,before the
sun-rays
hada chance to
evendance lightly on
the
door,and turn them into
something
good;to take
the
risksthat involve and
evolve
withthe brandishing of
ones
souland petition for
nothing
morein
return....
