it is nothing i know for sure, but i believe

your magnet magic melded minds to you -

broke hearts from iowa to mexico (is that far) if

i have it right, because your sunlit mouth and karma

lured love in from the far side, from the bright side

through the right side, to your inside, to your heart's light,

to where loves settled, pooled, shone like water and purled,

eternal spring, reflecting your soul flames when the sun set -

spirit freedom, mind petals you let go that locked

eyes green, brown, blue and you, being royalty and

traveling light, perched on golden ladders, looking down

on knights you nighted, while you reigned forever,

exotic treasures gifted, held by love and shared in warmth

and princess angel hair (i remember), queen of kingdoms gripping

and strange, making every castle yours, every dream laid at your feet,

making men mad for you, like those long ago blue eyes from waterloo
