< fiord* >
my dearest love
what can I say?
you took my heart
some thirty years ago
when I first saw your picture...
the beauty of your depths
your cold blue strength
in which I know resides an ancient heart
still beating
waiting to embrace me
but we are separated
by eight thousand miles
a $1000 ticket...
true love should have no barriers
especially ones of gold
but this is fantasy
a fantasy of youth
the years have worn me now
and taught me truths
i never wished to know
the poor
cannot escape
and i
shall never know your beauty

*"Fiord" is how they spell "fjord" in New Zealand
a brightly colored fungus that grows in bark inclusions
