CONTACT
I forgot what a kiss is – the taste of an afternoon coffee. So as the waves pulled from the land, I feel like a desert ship.
Contact, I forgot what that word means, Shipwreck for months In books.
I look for a meaning to embrace me, to tell me everything will be fine .. To go and leave those roses in my father’s memory, To light a candle to the Virgin Mary.
Contact, To be in your dream hug. Let me see your eyes, To smell your perfume. I’m looking for that word in that old dictionary.

I find ease in your willingness to be who your are. I am soothed. A long term grace. My second reading of this poem comfortable in my own space. I enjoy.
