| Mushrooms by the Stream |
(To hear a concept album with many love songs inspired by my wife, click on the title below.)
For Sylvia
We have found the sublime
in so many things, but nothing
as much as the stream that veins
the grass near pounding stones
and tiny mushrooms, threading
through rocks blanketed
by deep velvet moss, its song
so quiet and measureless
that we stay still and silent
for a long time, closing
our eyes, listening as it flows
into the quiet, down
the chasm into the valley
far below: Somehow
our love flows with it
and rains quietly down.
