Adorned with cheese,
And my favorite bottle of wine…
…and I’ve already
Begun to feel
Speechless,
Discovered,
Like a man, caught
In a transparent armor!

I’ve begun to feel

That sometimes
When the tongue fails,

When the pen’s stuck,

Maybe, it’s a good sign!

I’ve begun to feel

That from this gasp
A poem will be born,
As a geyser yet to burst,
To splash a rainbow,
Made from the cries

Could take you

To a garden of roses,
With a petal as red
As pomegranate seeds,
Upon which rests
A morning dew,
Through which
You could see
All the colors
