A Song of Love To My Ex
A Song of Love to My Ex
Let me sing a song of love
Pennsylvania love in the Juniata Valley
Seventies love that tasted of incense smoke and Hendrix
Your lips were essence of wine
Your odor, my heaven.
Wooded walks through hanks and leaves of gingkoes
And talks that lasted till dawn
I lived my dream.
Let me sing a song of love,
innocent love, keystone love
That has no stress and strain.
Knows not of androids and Smart TV’s
Shares clothes
Plays chess and hike miles.
How perfumed was the spring rain?
that welcomed me to womanhood
I was your gates of Heaven.
Let me sing a song of love
All about you, your preacher father
And all those siblings that I
Came to care so much, my dear heart
Hand and hand with Johnstown diamond,
Bliss emanating from my every pore,
I lived my fantasy.
Let me sing a song of love.
first real love that says, I will.
We came to the world each day fresh and new,
like children, naked in the sun
open to trees and skylight roof
twigs snapping below the weight of our mass
here we head for home
separately.
We will be hand and hand again with Jared diamond,
My wildest dream, maybe your nightmare.
Remember always, in spite of
everything that is now,
love is eternal,
and only life will determine
the end of
the story.
