A POEM FOR DILL

Black and white
Always my favorite
Substantial
Soprano
Glorious contrast outside against
Color and greenery
Sensual sleeping partner
Chiquita’s successor
Beautiful beautiful boy

Shock me
Eyes open mouth open
Soul gone yet
Living now inside me
Body still warm pliant
Stretched over the bedroom floor

Enlarged heart
No surprise my gentle one
Who gave joy purring silent
Big hearted
Grace
