One For One(For Onelia)

And so
I become

(courtesy of you)

an Eye-rich man

seeing things as you do

delighting in(how you can)
take two words &

melt them(weld ‘em)

one into
the other

so that “laugh” & lovely”

become(altogether)
“laughly.”

You teaching
me how

words
behave

when they are on their own

unencumbered by a human tongue

and how
they love

to play

teaching me the speech
of wonder.

I greatly delight in Onelia’s delight in language and how she can make ideas jump through the flaming hoops of conciets in the circus of her imagination.

I, a mere clown(3rd on the left) circus band gasping in awe as the beautiful lady flies through the ear and the Big Top holds its breath.

All I can say is:

Reader…read her!
