he came to me like
a thousand feathered kisses on my lashes
and i let him light upon me
gently
i told him i couldn't stand
for too much more
miracle worker that he is
he gave me so much more
made me rock and reel
like a sinewy palm waving
in his windstorm
i told him i seriously couldn't stand
for any more, for sure
he smiled at me,
with eyes that illuminated
my whole being
i promised him, i really, really
couldn't stand for
this - not another minute!
without a word
he held his arms outstretched
and opened all his love to me
my knees gave way
.....
