Anniversary

How delicious you are to my eyes
You are all the spring sun and color
Brilliant soft clouds in robin's egg skies
Your sweet heart's made my life fuller

Twenty-five years of spring my love
And summer's dances like when we were wed
Fall's bounty, our children, so proud of
Winters cozy, curled up in bed

I can't really say what you mean to me
Language is wholly inadequate
But my heart swells with it, like full-moon seas
Every day of our lives, I'm glad of it

Blossoms cascade joy
Spring wells up, burgeoning love
My heart bursts birdsong

Everything

Tender, our mothers
Caring for us when we could not
Cherish while you can

Never so treasured
As when she brooded for you
Universe center

Why did she do it?
How did you get here alive?
What do you owe her?

The image fractures
What is reflection, or real?
Crystal lies for eyes

Owls's eye butterfly
Resting as dead leaves, with friend
Beautiful jungle
