"It matters"

 It matters

It matters what you want is all I have to say

That begat the problem that has held me in its sway

For the sake of new under the sun

Amidst the frolic, revel, and the fun

It matters if foundations, I provided

Or, train wrecks and my presence coincided

It matters that foundations of the heart become a whole

It matters, the transcendence of the lifetimes that were stole

The mighty majesty as clouds go tripping by

Behemoths of a size to fill the sky

It matters that we see it eye to eye

Instead of life remaining dotage waste

Hurried on along in mindless haste

Living of a lifetime's love held dear

It matters that we rid the eye of tear

The ache to share the love a lifetime long

Transforming ache to lyrics of a song

I'd rather sing the revel to the dawn

In which, decisively, the beast is gone

In matters of the heart, it all is minus

Until we share a life of loving finest

Throughout a lifetime is the way to share

With many; and no fault in loving care

In most intimate relationship of them all

The sharing  of the love becomes the call

It needs to be we look each other in the eye

With a love that shakes the ground and sky

What matters is the sky begins to scream

In resolution that it's not only a dream

For all the ache, for all the pain and stress

Transcendence to the love, I must confess

Is all the answer that I'll ever need

To move along to revel in the deed

The previous rhoem was written over a number of days lately, weeks really.  I keep wanting to post it but, then, another comes along.  I put it down and pick it right back up.   Altogether, it took moments.  

I kinda like it.  It, essentially, flowed out of me in bits and pieces. It's like I caught fire, once again, from the blaze of a mind that I always sense, the blaze that has always warmed me.  The blaze that I have written endless poems regarding.

And this is the poem and time that stirred me to take seriously the idea of sending you this book, once again.  I don't know if I can do that.  I would still feel like I intruding.  I also don't know if this will need rewrites.  Probably.  Maybe additions.  That's unlikely, though.

I would dance with you anytime, anywhere.  Give me any warning at all and I wouldn't even be too awkward about it at the beginning.
