Summer Love
This summer, trimmed in your kisses, sewn up in your love
I thought to re-educate myself on the sorrows love can bring
but failing that class, I became a student of love's addictive power
You said I've thrown you off kilter, suffering vertigo each time you pass
an open window and want to call my name, dizzy in the sound of me on
your lips, our nights shine as day and day murders all doubts.
In our rambling, messy home we make love in each room, set standards
that go deep into the earth like kids digging to china in their backyard.
I eat your poppies and you dine on my lovesick mouth, we play on the porch
and let this unending summer of rain and love wash over our hearts and
teach us what school or well-meaning family never could.

OOoo, must confess.. You have captured my little bitty heart,
extremely loving on this piece!! oh gosh,
what I am .. going to do. for you lend
me speechless swallows all the times.
Your'e voice, is un'ordinary,odd &
beautifully eerie.. & if I were to read you any
where else ..mmh even probably later in
a few years. It would be recognized because
of your genuine signature.
A pleasurous depth of brail you
lend, & my soul is humbled to have
this chance of being within the same
poetic province. How lovely to
actually finally feel & breathe another's
language.
& this whole thing:
