Golden

"Because you need no explanation:

Only Heaven knows

the justification

for your beauty."





The marriage of Seasons

holds the years in place.

A balance is struck

between Sun and Moon.

As one

fades from foresight,

and the other

pours a chalice of glow

tenderly

over the skies.



             Subdued,



two lovers

vaporize into lullabies

between

the white-noised



s               a

         t                       i

                       t                   c



that a TV screen displays:

Flickers abound

as black and white dots

dance blindingly rapid

amidst each other,



             emphatic.





Don't know what you do to me,

but I am submissive

to its charm.

Tuned into my following thought

before it is even

channeled into a move.



But it feels

like silver-dawned Septembers

being watched

from a floating porch

in the middle of the sea.



And I kneel

before the oceanic mist

to taste

the wetness

of your coming breeze.



             Prophetic.



In a land so riddled

with alluring cosmetics,

I am offered a basic acre

of your hope,

your hand,

and your favor.



And don't think

I'm not well aware

of all that you do for me.

But like glass

I can only be shone through

and reflect a sparkle

of the thought I've been

put into.



             Inspired.



Breath,

Light

enter my chest.

Mix,

mesh,

form

as I exhale

stardust

just like you...



We are golden.
