Be My Poem

Let your spirit fill mewith delicate expressions,dictating a romantic ballad,holding on to adjectivesthen…slipping from your tonguein sweet rhythmcascading                        into my earsas water folding over us.Let your hands holdverbs and nouns,us as pronouns,beginning and endingtracing each line and spaceof my bodycautiously                      placingeach moment into silhouettes of        p a u s e sand shading the imaginationwith tension, intervals, and length.Be my melody,reciting a sonnet,        haiku,          free verseuntilthe final closure,an exclamation to end all wordswith…a…deep…sigh…!
