I gaze into the deep
blue spring
Its water placid, cool
and clear.
The visage staring
from the surface
Rippled beard, grey,
three score near
Of years and eyes still
flush with wonder
Age has squinted, dimmed,
yet still
Those eyes see truth
and beauty in
Love found, such passion
grown, until
It bathes the clouds
in wondrous light
And as they float behind
the face
Transferred, transformed
by smooth, still water
To my stare, an aged
grace
Of calm surrender to
that love
Reflected from a heart,
revealed
And through my eyes,
into the image
To and back; fire,
ill concealed
On quiet lakes that
ghostly image
Follows, shadows, chases
me.
It does not shrink;
it revels in
The joy I feel. I cannot
be
This happy, so; perhaps
the phantom
Twin I find on mirrored
walls
He is the real and
I , the Dream
He lives in Spring
and I, in Fall
And yet, can Autumn
be this constant?
Can the dream sustain
this pace?
For in my Spring I
knew not love
As this, that brings
a smiling face
Reflected in the store-front
windows
And, in dreams, my
lover's eyes
Is magnified; returned
to me
An ardor sweet and
soft and wise.
Love's light within
my heart does grow
And like a ruby laser,
flies
So straight and true,
now back to Her
Time, age, and space
now quiet lies
Ephemera we know as
souls
Flee from our bodies,
rise and meet
And we are stars and
galaxies
We soar and swirl,
we are complete
Our universe illuminated
By the passion we reveal
Our planets glow, our
comets flash
We cannot hide, nor
hush, conceal
For, it is Love, dissolving
darkness
Conquering loneliness
and fear
Becomes one body, one
existence
Friend and Lover, HOME
IS HERE
FINIS. FINIT
