THIS I KNOW IS TRUE

Sun Drop

this summer
i hope we end each day
watching the sun drop
satisfied we’ve spent it
giving the sun something
to shine about tomorrow

********************************************************

carving day again, my love
time to take on
shapes of arrows
become separate from trees

once again be
married to string
and bent to bow
grabbed by the middle
pulled back and
shot across
land and sea

i will do it again and again
but i may never
reach your heart
again
