LINGERING

Oliver Listens

Lingering tastes on my fingers
Lingering tunes in my ears
Lingering love in my heartstrings
Evaporates foibles and fears.

Lingering tunes in my ears
Pluck plums, pears and
Popsicle tears.

Lingering love in my heartstrings
Plays melody’s
Symphonies:

Evaporates foibles and fears
For me, eternally
Born again child.
