you
who writes such beautiful tales
what do you know
about love?
what do you know
about soft lips
and quiet whispers
and calm nights with them?
how do you tell
such beautiful lies
about things you have not
ever experienced?
you spoke of lying under the peach trees
and you conjured images of quiet happiness
you gave no specifics
yet i understood everything.
you made me want to fly to LA
to live with the stars
to feel the ocean breeze
to travel the world.
you are a wizard
with your words
a poet
with your thoughts.
the world will deal
bad hands to you
and you will take them
like the king you are.
i hope you continue to travel
dole out your tales
leave audiences filled with wonder
dance among the gods.
have the sky paint a picture
describe bird song
give life to dead trees
because you are a poet.
