The Fool

It may be nothing after all.

If I could stand on the mountain under you

And maybe sit and wait

For the tears to collapse.

Perhaps...

I thought you would spill your soul.

I was once a fool

not a fool at all. One day the tears will . . . the soul will. . . never a bad thing to stand on the mountain. Always something.

Have you ever read Edward Rowland Sill's "The Fool's Prayer"

the last line goes something like "Lord, be merciful to me a Fool" . . . an old favorite I guess. And a new one here.

you are absolutely one of my favorite poets

I've stood on the mountain many times waiting...this is beautiful.
