Two new poems. ^^
Hummingbird on the Left
Small, irridescent rainbows.
Red, blue, green, silver-white.
Fathomless black eyes
sparking near the sword of a beak.
Time-transcending
Huitzilapochtli: God of War.
First Kiss
I remember the day clearly,
if now not the date.
It felt, at least to me,
a rushed version of a movie-style first date.
We strolled around the mall,
hand in hand, smiling.
We ate well enough for our stomachs,
talking twenty-light-years per second.
Traipsed through the forest.
Nature always seems the best motif for these things.
Striding down staircase rocks,
hopping near the creek.
Crossing the stone-wood Troll's Bridge.
I trailed behind;
you called in that tone that bespoke parent, a sibling, lifelong friend,
warned of my losing my way as you took up my hand.
It was sudden.
Oddly enough, I recall the path curving here.
It was soft, but not a comparable feeling.
It spoke more, it seemed, of protection and love
than is capable of a thousand knights or 10 million sonnets.
And what do I say
when I recover my brilliant vocal faculties?
"That squirrel is staring at us."

How is it that you always know how to capture a moment perfectly?
I'm certain I will always remember that moment.
I love you.
