chewing tasty pink buds
when out of the blue (literally, cloudless was the sky)
your face appeared upside-down
laughing with a smile as you shook
my day dream awake.
You're lying on white hospital sheets
pulled tight to keep the lines off your back
as tubes and wires intake and exhaust
your body an engine in repair
I drove you into that tree
my nightmare awake.
We're lying on a bed for the first time
our unity a cleaving bond of love
based on the foundation Christ built
between humanity and God
intimacy manifest despite broken pasts
our marriage awake.
Colin and Co.
