I Miss You
by Rudy Giovanni
I miss you.
Like the rain in the Persian wilderness,
where the water runs through its stillness.
And the dew that covers its loneliness,
the land that forgotten sadness.
I miss you.
Like the snow in Christmas season,
the snowflakes that fall without a reason.
The yuletide carols that teach us lesson,
in the birth celebration of God’s Son.
I miss you.
Like the sunlight behind the ominous cloud,
the sun that rules and serves so proud.
The morning yorks may sing so loud,
until it awakens the lady that I found.
I miss you.
Like the celestial moon and stars,
wandering inner peace and inside wars.
Mere ethereal dusts from Mars,
your beauty of Venus in spiral sonars.
I miss you.
Like the truest of all emotions,
all is moving in still motions.
This is the force I cannot understand,
is this you and love in my hand?
