tamarack

 
do you want to know my scent?  
do you want to feel my skin?  
do you want to hear my voice in the night ?
do you want my hold of my hug?
tight, tighter than tight  
to help you through that dark, dark night.  
I want this and more...but even just a minute with you  
I ponder...I would adore, adore.
...I so ponder you  
my mind, your mind  
... I so ponder you  
my time, your time  
and still  
...I so ponder you  
hand in hand  
along a gentle yet winding path  
filled with ferns and your pines  
and sun light starved daffodils  
I so ponder you  
Full moon silhouettes  
on ripped waves  
stones that raise from the water's grave  
like the look of a dragon's back  
sitting...I so ponder you.  
you, my tamarack  
I have visions of you  
my eyes close  
and I have visions of you  
may I always have you…
...as I ponder you.
