Anna in the morning after

In crystal you dawned
perfect in your immaculate
nakedness
without words
in the song of birds
each star lay down
its attributes of fire
and darkness bowed
to the gift of light.

You show the world
in the name of all unborn
eyes how to see
and I called you love
as we joined together
in all the colors of flowers
and my reflection is
red in the pool of your heart
and so I became a horizon
in the rebirth of every smile.

Oh so beautiful.

Ann of Norway Just beautiful Barry. "and my reflection is red in the pool of your heart and so I became a horizon in the rebirth of every smile." We shall never smile again without a thought of you both in such union and joy, the rainbow will tell us again and again that this life is beautiful, if one grabs the day and sways with the trees as the breezes of fortune offer their opportunities. This poem has such adoration and wonder of life's most treasured and precious gift, that of love. May we all learn better to love one another in the sceptical old world of terrors, so sadly enacted, when something infinitely more valuable lies there waiting to express itself. We all love you both and love you for this series of beautiful poems dearest Barry, I am proud to be able to call you my brother. Ann.
