you are asleep now but
it has already begun
it is already there
expanding in the wee hours
of this brand-new day –

ju-day
juday
today

you


this is to you, judih

to you whom i found
as i followed my words
that had already
been embracing you
before my first breath
teared the wafting veil

to you wildly dancing
on the shores of your thought
thru the seas of your dreams
in the eternal surf of
understanding
your voice so strangely
familiar to me

you, whirling dervish
burning lotus blossom
restless desert rose
somersaulting along lines
of burning horizons
and solstices of love

you with eyes wide open
dreaming deeply
feeling intensely
desperately trying
to understand

you, spinning in rapture
tiptoeing thru dreams
hovering quietly
above the tactile world
inhaling in awe
the sound you feel
expanding within

this is to you, my friend

you whom i feel
touching my soul
with gentle kisses
in the shape of
question marks
glowing with love and wonder
and being lighter
so much lighter
than all time
and space

this is to you

this is to you


happy birthday, judih


i love you
