Tell Her

I haven't had a chance
yet
to share this 
with my girl

She needs to hear
but not wait 30 years to open
her ears
to the peals
all around
those belles and beaus
ringing their love
ringing their love

They sing
loud and soft

But if you
close up your heart
nothing
can make you
reverberate with
the motion 
of the ocean
of pure
(there is no other word)
LOVE

So I want her
to know
all around her
are the sounds
waves
coming to envelop
and tell her 
she is loved

Please
don't wait
til you're 
middle aged
and
an almost stranger
coworker
has to tell 
you
what you were too
blind to
look at
too deaf to be
opened to
the indisputable
fact
they love you
they all do

open up
let it in

as Wally says
drink their milkshakes
accept their love
(pardon my misquote
but...)
you are loved
