Jérémie
Charles Fields II 1955 (Fort Bragg, NC)
i just now caught a glimpse of you
in younger days
(...saw you as a child, your face aglow)
Lost in the memories of people, places things,
Realized, just then Where you must have been,
For lovers of life Looking up at windswept clouds
Observing stars at night
streams of life gently flowing by
Starlight finds us, so entuned
Making motions together
Just us two, me and you
Sliding into another realm
In ways almost imperceptibly measured
Cleverly diverted to another room
To create our lovers moon
Hot and cool in waning light of summer days
In reflection, quiet moods of our inner minds,
When calm enough to wade within our spirit pools tears of joy glowing in your eyes
With emotion, rising tides to merge into the flow
Of other people’s lives as they reap the bounty
from the oceans of passing tides,
For reasons We have found each other, here
Greater than what we know
Returning every season Right on time
Eye, reflecting by passions you have known...
Kept by the fire in your eyes
