Cry of the peacock
You came to me from
The other side you
Made it safely new
And fresh you brought me
Kisses that I longed for
You were as shy as you were
Before and then so
Find me grateful
As I am I held you
Again now so soon
And saw you twice
Fresh and new your
Coat warm and glistening
Soft to the touch
Crossing through the
Membrane you made it
It’s a second goodbye
But a grand hello as they
Receive you back
Into the wonder
Earth will never be
The same without you
I love you

Caught up in the druthers
Did we take it too far
Or just not far enough
I could be a lot less afraid
If you think the ocean’s deep
You should see my eyes
When they’re looking back
At you into your everything
Not too fast not too slow
Feels pretty expressive
Conveying how we feel
To one another sometimes
Even without words
Picking up on your signals
Attempts in sharing this
Experience with others to
Figure out somehow
What you were saying
If what I saw was real
If I leave it alone or
If I continue to share the story
And find out that
I should go back or
That I missed the first
And last chance or even more
That it didn’t matter really
Whatever we choose to
Spend time thinking about
How much what didn’t happen
Actually matters
