puzzling song you sing
Jim Ferguson
heart-rending
bluebird
of perfection
i’m puzzled
by the puzzle
of your song
i do not
understand
your charming rhythms
nor the fact
that my
receptive heart
chimes in time
with your
vibrant music
and gapes
in apprehension
on your beauty
melodic pulse
of tender strength
and yearning
to soar within
the echo
of your tune
to join with you
ecstatic and erotic
in shrouded mists
in love-lust
for all time
undying─
how badly
i do love
the far-warm song you sing
