Our weekend
wagtails warbling in the green of her lawn
so you like my smell
sun sitting high over a cool verandah
and I your skin
that silky soft covering you inhabit
your eyes that sing
mouthing what your lips say without words
creating whirlwinds in my heart
that love some would like to potion
but it is only for us
my fence your landmark
that pulsing sensation
we move between doors
perceiving, discovering
and we give of it
for our sharing
for you to dream in
and shake the oceans
to know that which we do
our way our path
honesty our flower
your garden where I nurture
bring the cosmos alive
and neo always has to have her say
tapping on the window
chasing feathers
as we chase rainbows and caress
that which is invisible
that which dwells within us
is us
