For My Husband
Blue and orange watch
Porch-sitting in morning's warmth
Scolding squirrel steals seeds
My Anam Cara,
Inexpressible feelings
Swirl among the leaves
Dry verse failing fast
A bitter hope on the tongue
Silent tea steam curls
Heat in hands and heart
Shared between goat and horned ram
Laughter overcomes
I love you.
