An ode to Xiao Lings question .
The day begins in mystery.
It is the moments we live.
From the heart, need to give.
At days end, becomes history.
At sun rise, it begins again.
For so many, life is routine.
A never ending chorus, unseen.
At sun set, life’s only refrain.

My dear Xiao Ling .
The road awaits, it doth sing .
OH ! to spend this day with you – such pleasure !!!,
for me, it would be, what a wonderful treasure !!!
Harrison, patiently awaits our coming.
Acers of many coloured Tulips, beckoning.
The skies of soft Salvador Dali, blue,
waiting to shine down upon me and you.

Xiao Ling,
This black, wet night, you, a sad song, to me, did sing,
as I spent a painful hour on the outside of your tears,
wiping, kissing them dry, and wondering why?, what fears?,
did bring to the surface, a multitude of tear drops to your face.
A multitude of memories?, your life's journey?, me?, my place
in the larger scheme of things?, what were your thoughts?,
what had life taken?, what from life?, had you not got?
What was it Xiao Ling?, that created tears of sadness to sing
of what ever it was, that this life, the moment, to you did not bring.
Holding tightly, dancing, kissing - passions unfulfilled do sting !

XIAO LING
My Fading Sun Shine
Clouds silently slipped in on the bright spot,
those last beautiful moments, with you , I got.
Now I sit in reflection, in gloom,
in my four cornered room.
It happened and your send off was in a shower of tear
drops, sentiments that represent all that I fear.
Fear that, with me, never again will you be near,
except that is, in all the memories I hold so dear.

XIAO LING
You are a Beautiful Mystery, I would love to solve.
You are a Secretive Soul, I want to know, your secrets.
I want to unlock, unravel, open the doors.
I want to dance with your skeletons.
I want to lay with your ghosts.
I would love to be your facilitator,
the expediter of your precious dreams,
be able to make them all come true,
be your Dream !
