Kansas In Summertime

Shining crystals
Slivers of light that you give
Do the stalks feel it washing over
Like a deluge in mid May?

What is it like to feel full?
Not devoid of everything
An unabridged chasm
No path can connect

I always say this
An old refrain for a slightly new tune
I love everyone more
But the closer I get
I retreat
Thinking to protect
Something I don’t know

There’s a lot of things I could have done
And many things I’ve said
I hate my desire
For touching, yielding and holding


Nights pass
I lay in bed
Thinking about possibilities now long dead
Coax the fire a little more
I’m a good friend then
Always misjudging

Finally
It arrives
Morning dear
In all its bounty
The husks strong
The oaks tall
Green all around

When that day dawns
I need to know
Will love be with me
To see our home grow?

Please love, come with me
