HER LAUGH

 

You live

Just one life

Please don’t regret

Any love you gave to another

Some of us, so lucky

Thank you Jesus

We found and attached to someone

One of the seven billion

And there, right in front of my eyes

She was

A lovely waif of a girl

Impassioned, bold, obstinate and genuine

            The whole entire complete package

            Gift wrapped in silken velvet

            She kissed like a spring morning

            Bold, in charge, full of love

            And when you could breathe again

            It hit you –

            Who in the world could be so lucky as me?

            A wanderer from another century –

            Thrown a diamond so bright

            It could not be held

            And thus converted itself to flesh

            And here she is

Wonder drips from these eyes

Sweet memories of belonging

Hovering, like a lover in climax

Between real life

And a sense of colossal merriment

            Her laugh

            Right in the middle of it

            Caught me                                                                                          200810.1
