Life in a Morning (a poem I wrote a week or 2 ago)
We sat, smiling, in the dampened green
Beneath the azure blanket above;
I smiled as your words flowed over me,
Soaking through my skin in one great, steady wave
...And I laughed
.
People were passing all around us,
I watched them carefully from our back-row pew
As I listened to your gentle murmur.
You told of murder, revolution, and lies-
Dreams for the future and hopes from the past
.
I sat and watched you patiently,
Remembering the spark in your eye,
And you smiled as you watched me laughing,
Not knowing my laughter was for you.
Beneath the azure blanket above;
I smiled as your words flowed over me,
Soaking through my skin in one great, steady wave
...And I laughed
.
People were passing all around us,
I watched them carefully from our back-row pew
As I listened to your gentle murmur.
You told of murder, revolution, and lies-
Dreams for the future and hopes from the past
.
I sat and watched you patiently,
Remembering the spark in your eye,
And you smiled as you watched me laughing,
Not knowing my laughter was for you.
