On the eve of the eve of the eve etc. etc. etc.
of your birthday
(we’ve got some more days to go!)
I contemplate what life was like last year
these days
today
tomorrow and the next
day
on my couch I lay
big and round and full of life
squatting for posterity
and praying for eternal breath
we all waited for you
the precious shining moment
the gift of God returned
and here we are again
full Gregorioan circle
I chant your name once more
Victoria Rose
and there you go
bloom —
