Meditate It Up
for Crystal Flowers

got to see her again and,
though briefly lasting, what a joy it was

she really is as pretty and as lit up
as a tree for Christmas
indisputably beautiful

return to her store to be sure
and to confirm that she does exist
that I did not dream her up

somewhat sheepishly
entered her store to seek her out
and found her among the faces,
among the females

she the one with whom I connect
the one who affects me as deeply as affliction

but it is joy she brings

oh, were I as young again as she makes me feel
I think of her and I dream

I always wanted a girl as pretty as she is
to put in my pocket
to pull out again
