Poem for Ophelia…
And
in a world that is big. and lonely. and hard.
she walks.
no crutches. no guide. no well trodden easy path to follow.
she walks.
with her beautiful head held high.
with her slender girlwoman body. electric yellowgreen eyes.
her smile.
And
in my little world. lonely. hard.
she excites me.
and makes taking my own little path more fun to follow.
she excites me.
with her head filled with adventure.
with her slender girlwoman body.
electric yellowgreen eyes.
her laugh.
And
in a world that is big. and lonely. and hard.
she walks?
no.
she flies.
And.
she carries my heart.
