teaming hearts

fluttery voiced our smiling
we waver weaving small sounds
hinting through

prints together tearing up
welding in eyes your history
with mine

graced with long curls
feverish color clowning
layer upon layer - lava

cotton rests and scribble
lines of water flame cities
with a crown face frown

we walk the iceberg clearing
through the water deep
holes to meet greet pause

id like to take a hand or hair
and keep it near my cheek
smelling smile stroke a bit
waking me when tired

i cradle you at night sometimes
yet in the dreams it stays
brother mother baby bears
our eyes meet deep felt rare

and years plus ten we may believe
in a night open stars breath air
id hold you that night i think -
imprinted on my lower back
and silently id hide
