By Not Telling



A name with which you have blessed me

On occasion, and it's true

It is a virtue

To see the end and be

Willing to wait for a few

Extra moments, days or weeks,

Even years to wait, for instance

A few days for an email from

My favorite person (albeit

With some

Difficulty)

Or a bit

More easily

When we used to dance

For you to finish before me

Or perhaps by chance

As 'teach' I do what I'm supposed

And wait for the 'student' answer the question posed

Of her own intent

For some of these you have called me 'patient'

Much to my joy, but in reality

I only see

In the end the most positive emotions blending

That's why from the joyfully anticipated ending

My patience originates

For me

The ending I most joyfully anticipate

Is a beautiful smile upon your lovely face

Now, this type of love is rare, though the most pure and real in unconditional ways. A true blessing to have! All the best!

"unconditional" love is the sickest expression of all.......

Well, he has used the pen names, Howard Roak and Rob Wurd...

He seems tainted by expressions of love and poems for Cris. :)
