Ode to the Unknown Reader

You come visiting every now and then

Either by some chance or by volition

May be several times within a day

And like to linger a little over there.

Must be due to some sly affinity

Like companionship in a sweet dream

Or the caress of a stealthy lover

Then you too leave, often without comments.

No appointments or answering doorbells

And we meet, talk, ruminate over things

Agreements or many disagreements

Your silent feelings inspire my next post.

Many are too restless to stay awhile

And leave the singe of their troubled psyche

But I refuse to be infected by angst

Or any agnostic peroration.

In the new world: I blog, therefore I am

Perhaps we equally need each other

More so for me, the belief that you exist

And in the frequency of your visits.

I sleep, I walk, I swim but still I am

Abroad in the expanse of cyberspace

Anticipation of your sweet footfall

Simmers forever in my tremulous heart. [Wed-050706]
