while you are here(it is temporary
you have my time,energy,attention
when you leave(it will happen
please do not rely upon my perception
memories are selective and poor witnesses
Reception is tentative at best(we all have fears!
and when openness is not mutual-
how can you then blame me for withdrawing?
i will love you while you are alive
smiling and Spring,green and golden
and i will learn to love you as you grow lines
between us or within your warzones
It is always harder to say this to those
brought up on Hallmark cliche and only Readers Digest
but the ease of mutuality adds to me-
co-operation ,goodwill,alacrity-
these matter to me.They add to us as well
you have stories to share and to tell
I have ears and time and a mind to listen
You are worthy of attention-
but only if you affirm the living
May we both choose to remain in this dimension
until a greater Revelation sparks new Wisdom
and we learn more from those who no longer agree-
Love the living? or those of history?
