Words embraced my night then drifted into morning
summer warm and for a while I missed those words
that swept so smoothly through my mind and quiet
heart of dreams while songbirds fed the gentle air
with heaven to prepare the earth for tolerance of
another flightless workday in the concrete zone.

They promised they would stay but on waking there
was only wordless silence then I felt their echo rise,
sweet memories and blush of perfect lover�s touch
that must leave eternal trace of grace upon pale skin
of breath, for they had kissed me while I dreamed
and drifted into summer warm to join them there.
