Transcendental Sonnet #1231:
Embracing You: Beyond... Above...

for Silke

Silke shining from afar
I can see your little light
Can you see me where you are?

I look across the sky tonight
Across all time across all space
I look up and I see your face

I write about my loneliness
And people do not care unless
It touches them in theirs

So then I try to be funny
Only you get my jokes honey
I climb the stars like stairs

Then everyone can understand and share our love
When they see me embracing you: beyond... above...
