What if we’ve never met?

(A birthday tickler for Allison Perry)

What if you never left the place
where you like and love most,
because it’s your place?
What if you never came to Handumon,
a quite place where we like and love
most because it’s our place?

What if we never met and see
each other’s faces; our funny faces. . . ?
share good times, songs, smiles, food,
drinks, bedroom like the payag and mosquitoes. . .

. . . and what if you never came to mix
your beauty with ours, tenderly touching
each other’s hearts with compassion and romance
during meals while Banjing, Michael, Gavin
and the rest jealously watch

What if you never celebrated your 24th birthday
with us; it would never be like this
today . . .
