Professor Wilson (rest his soul)
May have had a thought or two
Illuminating how you came to smile
With such radiance just hours into life
Unconscious of my joy I think
Just barely dry your face exposed
Below blond cactus down emerging
From the skullcap
Yes your face
Pink raw to the air
Your face
Held closely there before me
Parting lips eyes locking in and
Suddenly you were joyful
It was all for me and
We were one
