Those footsteps
In your hall
Are mine.
Returning in your dreams.
...
Thomas cavorting through memories
Of sunnier days.
A hitman that plays
At being a cat.
...
When you were mine
I held some reason and rhyme
A Jacobs ladder to climb
Sweet days of roses and wine.
...
I wish you today
Smiles in your heart.
The sun in your soul.
An open sky
...
I thought they were over.
All those lonely years.
Souls rolling in clover.
Until the mirage disappears.
...
Music, the one love that has been constant in my life.
My refuge, my transport to joy
Ethereal escape.
A pain bringer
...
Can you find her.
Now
She lives in a different shell.
And
...
Dead bird who will fly no more
Yet in vivid dream will glide and soar
Dead love, my heart will beat no more
Yet my Icarus will still ascend
...
Under humming amber skies
She warms me
With shivers of love.
and beauty in verse
...
