Teach me, dear poem

Better I lean into the wind

Than throw stones against the storm

For it seems I do not perish

That is one adventure too far

Show me, dear poem

The lesser ventures

Those tidy revelations

Encountered everyday

Such fluttering pages you write on

Your journey, dear poem

The drunkard’s walk

To track each turn, each spiced twist

I'm a hovering falcon

And when all that proves beyond me

Let me, dear poem

Hear your lullaby shush me

Feel your spell transport me

For it seems you sing a thousand years

Bold songs I pray include me
