O Columbine | Poem

 
 o Columbine
we will meet again
in lives less damaged thru darkness
blossom in the joy of being together
undespised by a rejecting world
o
love where are you now
knowing now the words and
feelings my fears held a'bay
if there is - is a here after
this is a fine feeling
finding wild flowers in my heart
we both judged ourselves guilty
of our own disregard
o
one in a thousand smiles
against all odds
we found Cayuse
music and wordology
limitless degreaty
excuse me
taking liberities beyond beyond
oh well you say i'm the deditor?
oh my
thank you for the shared
time/space
being teacher playing student
