Trickling Brook

Is it, that I’ve missed you, or
That I’ve nothing else to write
Is it, that I kissed you, yes, on
That moonlit midsummer night

Is it, as I’ve often insisted, or, that
The darkness should follow the light
Is it, that you resisted, yes, on
That chance meeting of second sight

Is it, that I tricked you, or, that already 
I was outbound, mind & body in flight
Is it, you the calm, cool, critic, yes, on
The explanation of what is & isn’t right

Is it that on looking back, or, that
In search of your once elusive slight
Is it, you of the distant missive, yes, on
That cloud of effervescent, silver-white


This is a poem from Vagaries:
Love of The Key to Room 149
