what is he to be?
what is he now to be, here?
but not here with me?
maybe kingmaker,
reasonable whisperer
in the ears of fate?
maybe dragonfly,
the majestic surveyor
of all the ripe greens?
maybe a shepherd,
the stoic walking figure
among flocks of time?
a fragrant river,
the carrier of colors
cast by Mother sun?
some everlasting -
some ever-gold ray of good,
flung...
