happiness glides around my house
miss niceness, she is so kind!
the blue of her rings and the red of her shoes
and these little sneaky kisses of which are food
and there are no windows to be filling up
with the suns rays and a shining smile;
what exists except the moonbeam of her touch
and the stars in her eyes each of the hours today
a song is playing in my head
that trumps all the sounds around in the blue walls now
and though the sip I have taken is sweet
sugar is not as kind as miss niceness
oh, nice is the rule of a grin
that has understanding while is has shown up again
like a mirror that is saved from being broken
like a black silk robe that can shelter the warm skin
from all the cold that is trying to invade it
pinned like the butterfly which can no longer leave
the heat devours both you and me
here is where we share our morning drinks
the steam of both our coffee and our tea
breathing in embraces like the curling steam
the movement and action is paused for one minute
as if a waterfall frozen in real time
zooming like an over full river
there is no stopping it;
our fish and our canine, our hands intertwined
you lightly touch me with two children, your tulips
