playing by the sea
skipping rope in the sand
telling secrets to seagulls
who never had heard whisper
We were children playing by the sea
Never knew that I would get caught
in the skip rope
and you would be carried away
by the seagulls
8-19-71 Montauk Pt. Long Island New York
Saw you last night
who grew
out of the street we use to live off of
and that I have never left
The rains fell
The bus left
Laugh at me
I'll stay.
2-20-72 New Orleans
I've always loved youand every few times I see you
When your window opens into my life
I taste your breath
When the drapes are folded and placed
behind your breast I climb Mt. Olympus
and laugh with Zeus
When the kindling is lit
I romp in your fire
We are like two galaxies tossing
shooting stars to and fro
I have always known you to be
and I will love you in my mind
until all the poems fall to the ground.
9-01-77 Towson Maryland
"Come here"said the spinach
I looked around to be sure
no one was watching
Now we are married
and spend our evenings
laying in the garden
listening to the vegetables
sing the night away.
