Something sweet and romantic for a change. Gag. Kidding!!
____
Loving you is a Saturday
feeling and a Sunday stroll.
For you, the encrypted
become unencrypted.
You will never not love me,
even when our weekends turn into
Mondays.
Even when our photos
become monuments of us,
a still life of
sunlight and cedar,
the girl I was, abloom
in a field of beginnings.
Love that can’t hide
in a napkin, a coffee spill
or a blade of grass.
Liveable lives.
Forgivable.
Serene seas and mountains,
and the artifacts of
a champagne flute,
periwinkle shirts
and promises.
The litter of swoon
and our once in a
lifetime constellation.
-Tosha Michelle

Aw, so happy you stopped gagging long enough to pen this. You know me. This is one that i loved so much I read it twice. Wonderfully written. Two things really stood out for me. “You will never not love me,” Great line. Also loved you can’t hide love stanza.

Sweet and romantic, not kidding 😜 thoughts of a loving heart. Even a blade of grass feels your love. The heart understands what the mind refuses to comprehend.

Oh yes these lines:

You never fail to give us your best, Tosha! A beautiful image, a glorious poem AND a song. I never appreciated Johnny Cash while he was alive. (My parents adored him; that’s probably why.) But the more I learn about him and his life and his music, the more I am led to believe he was a true Renascence man! 😉 ❤
Peace, love & music for all,
