Untrammelled, dishevelled
You prance drinking
In gasping mouthfuls the falling rain, the
sweetened air.
Your laughter rebounds. A question.
The birds, surprised
Fly
In a fluttering chaos creating
Violent whirlpools in the dull placid air.
I stand
Watching
Stoic, immovable. my happiness derived
From yours; an inductive universe linking
Inexorably
A romanticist, a realist.
