I, Too, Know How To Touch Your Sky Poem by RIC BASTASA

I, Too, Know How To Touch Your Sky



the way to know you is to close my eyes
to touch and feel you
my nerves sing like a choir of children
whose sharp voices pierce the sky

your name engraves itself on the bark of
my tree self
i grow leaves and branches
i, too, know how to touch your sky

i grow roots deep into the layers of
our memories
i keep the silence of the ages
travel alone this damp darkness.
