Love Letter 308 tuning my guitar, my love

that beautiful petal love dropped in my cup,
was you
all along

like a sentimental weed
you kept cropping up

and I so perpetually
foolish
would snip you

but The One's
smile
doesn't come
only once

No
that holy pet
is infinite...
its purring
like a moving curtain
in continuous wind

I am on my way
to putting
the scissors
down

while you are
filling my cup
with
clippings
of new leaves

Lover
Beloved

it is not enough
to pawn you
into poems

like a sickle
I will cut the tongue
and leave the suckle
to
the true bee

in this way
the honey
will
keep
flowing

I Love You
Your Beloved
