of YES : a poem about YES

of YES 

(a poem about yes)

way back when 

love was a jar of yes that

never even grazed the bottom 

the finite was far from our fingertips 

claiming sips gushing and tranquil 

with a sea of stop lights all showing green 

and eyes caught in the mix with reservoirs to spare 

making frivolous wishes and having them granted

choruses of blush all grinning and slanted  

mountains of yes and summits of yes

candystores of yes 

echoes of years of miles of laughter
