Cider, beer, kimchi
sauerkraut and kombucha
ferments on my mind
If you're wild at heart
If you're wild at heart
you won't turn away from love
let your heart run wild
you won't turn away from love
let your heart run wild
Unfathomable
deep waters of sparkling blue
her eyes hold oceans
Like a ship captain
I try to predict weather
as tides shift each day
These depths nourish me
I fish for thoughts with my lines
measuring each catch
I dive in calm seas
exploring dark mysteries
among hidden reefs
Navigating wrecks
where lesser pilots have crashed
sunken histories
On waves I’ll depart
voyage to see other lands
explore other seas
Catching other fish
charting unmapped shores again
as homesickness grows
Time to clear the decks
I’m ready to drop anchor
her harbour awaits
A weekend away
A weekend away
mapping our intersection
told in six haiku
Natural retreat
animal spirits refreshed
washed by the river
Chirping among trees
our thoughts flew like birds at dawn
in all directions
Your warmth like the sun
fish jumped from those mottled eyes
your smiles seemed like bait
Challenging questions
a gentle vivisection
my heart feels exposed
We built a campfire
flames danced on questions of would
embers like your cheeks
Now filled with new words
after our time together
your cat missed my tongue
mapping our intersection
told in six haiku
Natural retreat
animal spirits refreshed
washed by the river
Chirping among trees
our thoughts flew like birds at dawn
in all directions
Your warmth like the sun
fish jumped from those mottled eyes
your smiles seemed like bait
Challenging questions
a gentle vivisection
my heart feels exposed
We built a campfire
flames danced on questions of would
embers like your cheeks
Now filled with new words
after our time together
your cat missed my tongue
