May 1982 – first of five
Carefully we crept into each other’s arm
softly we held and softly we touched,
faithfully accepting the other’s giving;
apart from responsibilities, realities
and longingly we intertwined,
explored and drew together;
A picture of weeping willows
sassaphras leaves – weaving
mountain roads leading into the distance;
tears from the lonely bear
spoiled the golden hair, swiftly winged,
she took flight and withdrew;
soared and glided into the darkness;
pulling tight, exposed flesh electrified
the night – distant lights grew nearer
blinded and filled our space with light.
