And birds are singing in the trees,
And all the time is flushed with flowers,
And youth is in these hearts of ours —

My Friend

© James Whitcomb Riley

"He is my friend," I said,--

  And lo! the thought of him
  Smited on my heart--and then
  The sun shone out again!

My eyes jump in and out, I'm mad again.

Marriage

© Mathilde Blind

The Many try, but oh! how few are they
  To whom that finest of the arts is given
Which shall teach Love, the rosy runaway,
  To bide from bridal Morn to brooding Even.
Yet this--this only--is the narrow way
  By which, while yet on earth, we enter heaven.

This wistful poem shows how the familiar and the odd, the real and imaginary, exist side by side. A Midwestern father transforms himself from a staid businessman into a rock-n-roll star, reclaiming a piece of his imaginary youth. In the end, it shows how fragile moments might be recovered to offer a glimpse into our inner lives.

Men, said the Devil,

they don’t want to mend
their own ways, but each others.

longing for north,
the silence
of birds gone south.
