An owl is a friend:
Announcing is midnight elation,
He calls in moonlight(er)
She responds excitedly (we are peaked)
-
Philosopher grabbed all in reach
Taught ideas to stand out, to reek
For weeks taught others speech
Drank hem, smelt lock, not caught weak
Love becomes strength,
when held for any length.
of time long past, years ago
compassion set them free, wisdom let them go
I let worry take its hurry 'cause
Much happened in the flurry
Found a woman (the grown man)
With tendrils of heart rowan
Pump arterie, blood in vein
If I grew, will do again
Women for wisdom, rain
Cleanse pore, in doubt: sane
Emotion change or same
Different enchantress flame
Time to waste, aside in game-
How better phrase words, how to frame:
The tidal for feeling acute
No words, just a tongue mute
Galaxy web, caught in thread
Sighing, dreaming as I lay on bed
Did events actually pass
Without word for feelings not crass
Yea, every moment precious
Yea, ever remember spacious:
How nights passed
Without a single "you" or "I"
How days last
With thoughts sky-high
Or if she sought another:
A bean-bag of a poultry guy,
I'd craft (in between a laugh)
How to procure wheat from rye,
How to pick the apple from her eye.
