A Different Slant
from my gallery of faces
he has the softest eyes
I have ever seen,
watery and doe full
is it compassion and empathy
that I see,
or some rheumy humor
bathing the scene
all doubts are washed away
by the sonorous baritone,
the soft and delicate tones
of interest and feeling
and a shy smile,
now I know what
she sees in him,
the seas and oceans,
green fields,
skies blue,
and merry meadows
too,
they are his sun
and her moon
a divine dance of
heavenly bodies
admiring and
circling each other
with a love that lives
breathing a notalgia
an infinty at echoes
