This - By John Bell

sweet John Bell stole my idea to write poems for people who've donated a title. i gave John "this" and he gave me "this" in return ^_^ love it.


This
for Katy Acheson

Midnight melody and a dash of blue
is my modest request.

I want to see the fireflies cavort
with Niagara Falls,

and have a rave party at the lighthouse,
which signals passing ships

in a cerulean bath. So that’s a bit
more than a dash, I know.

Just give me a melody to build on.
I’ll provide the blue.
