The poet posted the base fragment of this work on his blog on Monday, and delivered to me the final form for posting here, just yesterday.
As Beautiful as the Sky
you are as beautiful as the sky
and I
I am lost on the horizon
where blue meets grey
meets miles away
from what steps over
the edge of the world
where words are hurled
like stones of memory
and contemplation
of your beauty

Note there is no difference. "The integrity of the moment", as the poet always says. It is tempting to add or change, but then the integrity of the moment is lost.

Explaining the Tags
You will note, gentle reader, that all works under this blog now display "tags" to help classify and assign the works for your review and enjoyment.
These largely fall into 4 categories:
Year of writing, e.g. "1999"
Book published in, e.g. "from an unexpected quarter"
Inspiring muse, e.g. "Aubergine"
Genre, e.g. "erotica"
We are still in the process of cleaning up the tags, so please bear with us. Yes, some muses are classified under more than one tag, some poems appear in more than one book, or not yet in any volume, and some years are...hazy.

Exquisite.
As, I am told, is the lady who sparked the fire. The world owes her a debt a gratitude, that light which was lost has been found and revealed again.
