Hum the Truth

An excerpt from “Your Very Own Flavor of Poetry”

…You came here to hum the truth
that comes in only your
color

to sit inside the arms of a moment
to find breath in each drop of dark, to skip and sip and frolic
with every fleeting firefly
of light

You came here to give oxygen to words
to spin every stain
and splash
into your very own flavor
of poetry

You came here to look into your own eyes
and  whisper –
Beloved…
