for my friend, kurt vonnegut
Location
everything is beautiful
so beautiful
so lovely
and nothing hurts
i wish this weather
was here to stay
such an unexpected visitor
for february
but nevertheless
welcome always
i have yet to tell him i love him
even though
i know i do
his chocolate eyes
and the smirk that forever teases his lips
i love the sound of his voice
in my ear in the mornings
wrapped in his warm embrace
nothing could ever bring me harm
i love the way
he calls me on the phone
to talk to me for hours
about nothing
about everything
at night as my eyes
are fluttering closed
i love him
and i have yet to tell him
i love the sky today
a never-ending blue
if i'm not careful i might get lost
somewhere far above the clouds
i almost fed my cat watermelon
did you know
that watermelon seeds
contain cyanide?
don't feed your cat watermelon
thank you
february
