Sensory glimpses of how it could be,
A sweet easy rhythm in synchrony

Yet promise of something's

she says, with her dark eyes
smiling.

Soon you too will lie down with the sleep of rain, telling them a thing or two, grown old by having lived through your youth, that is all. Lying from the side of your mouth so often that you take up lying on your side, to try getting an eyeful of the of

holding out his arms and calling my name
