I love poetry-
For it streams from every pore to connect the human heart
The shapes it takes on is miraculous and healing
I love this room
It keeps on giving
Keeps ringing
Keeps shape-shifting
Keeps singing
It’s clever
I can always depend on Courtney’s hearty & infectious laugh
And I take the invitation to join in well after other laughter’s have long since ceased and fell through the floorboards to settle back in their comfortable places…
I love that she has that freedom
Men with white hair are delightful
And I can see genius dancing on their shiny bald heads
In this room there is salt & vinegar
Fire & rain
Sprinkles & stardust
Twilight & noonday
Oh! And I miss the man with the guitar
I wonder if he’s home
constructing yet another symphony to tickle our fancy
In this room is winter, spring, summer & fall
and the mysterious seasons in between them all
I miss Autumn & Ashraf
Eileen & Michelle
The cute guy who was easy on the eye
He was a poem wrapped up in a song
I bet he’s long since gone
In this room…lives poetry
And it streams from every pore to connect the human heart
The shapes it takes on is miraculous & healing
I love this room.
