For John: I Turn Around - 1978

Blue-eyed days' domain
brilliantly, defiantly directing
heat from a distance
very close.
You drive away
into the city,
I reflect upon
the kindest eyes
I have ever looked into,
the warmest brown.

I believe lapis blue skies color
comes second
after all these years
to the color of your eyes
and all I can see is you.

I have azure sunshine,
hot pearl days,
storms with thunder,
friends laughter,
dogs to dance my smiles,
music to embrace my spirit,
and the essence of summer.

Yet, I turn around
and all I want to see is you.
