Poem Written Beneath A Blue Lampshade
Jose Garcia Villa

I speak this poem tenderly

It being for you

And

For you only – We were not

Afraid and we did take love

Gorgeously.

We had no fears.

We knew love we knew it and

We were dancers for it

And also

We were rivers, we were moonlight

And also we were winds

As also

We were gods. And all this

Is remembrance, and all this

Is desire.

But also it is love.
