street car rumbles on Market
as dawn brushing our eyes
sneaks past your blinds
and wakes us in each other’s arms
waves crash on Black Sands
as gentle mist caresses lips
hands touch nipples
fogs cresting Twin Peaks
redwoods ancient on Mt Tam
see tide surge past the Golden Gate
our eyes opening in day see
bridges to each other’s soul
then heart to heart chest to chest
tectonic plates sliding together
as on earth so in heaven
joys rumble and subside
later streetcars wend me home
passing in twilit evening
I see your window
and I smile.
