It was only 10 a.m.
and I hadn’t even finished my coffee
when you said
come, darling, come,
the sky is on fire!
and pulled me to the window
where I saw the reason
why I love you, R.
You catch what the day throws at you
and share it with me
as a vision
or a painting
or your last breath.
A poet in the making!

Thank you S, for acknowledging my vision this morning. Somehow I know just what you/we love. Today, a vision and a painting, hopefully not my last breath any time soon, unless it is the one I take before my next sip of my morning-coffee. I’m always on the look out for you, you can count on me in that way. Love you always. R. P.s. BTW, really cool photos.
