Once Again
Once Again
Once again,
I have fallen in love
with your poetry.
Your images perform
a delicate shiatsu
on my skin,
dance over my body
like little bits
of air suffused
with rain.
Something about the way
you say things
brings me into
a different state
of mind.
I feel the scents of flowers,
the distant signals
of thunder and stars.
This is the way they did it,
those ancient seers
who spoke in verse
while everyone stood around
in awe
and listened.
