Excerpt from: In the Playhouse of My Mind Volume I, Circle of Life Trilogy
BLUE SKY LOVE
On the windowsill
above the sink in my kitchen
sits a rock the size of a nickel.
Indigo paint
adorns its uneven surface,
dabs of silver and white splash here and there.
Years ago the soulful artist
peeked at my face.
With youthful simplicity
he explained the gloomy sky
and silver-lined clouds.
Love as deep as heaven is high
lent its glow to the designer's face.
Forever linked are we
by blue sky love
warming a rock
the size of a nickel
on the windowsill
above the sink.
