Sweet William

Wind whispers through meadow of wildflowers picking up dead silence
Femininity hatching second chick
Mystery does not exist, they all hold crystal balls
Hen’s gossip caught in whirlwind frenzy
Cackling as fast as time permits

Guest of honor arrives; husband and baby towing
Ambrosia fit for a queen’s pallet
There is air escaping dominoes’ does its magic

Curtains draw receiving preparation for the second show

Audience sits at attention
Tiny treasures are hung
Jaws drop like puppets commencing to speak
Breaths held as excitement claims center stage
Her head cocked hearing miniscule voice
William, sweet William I hear and obey

William buzzing with animation
Tell her this and tell her that
Validation of life’s journey knows no lies
Water spills so gracefully
Adoration for woman brings great elation

Wind was now still
Silly stupid grins departing one by one
My book once again tells a novel tale

William, sweet William, you overflow my cup
