A CUTE POEM: I CAN'T TELL YOU...

My very special friend from Cape Town sent me this beautiful poem today from Margaret Atwood today.

I Can't Tell You

I can't tell you my name: you don't believe I have one
I can't warn you this boat is falling
you planned it that way

You've never had a face
but you know that appeals to me
You are old enough to be my
skeleton: you know that also.

I can't tell you I don't want you
the sea is on your side
You have the earth's nets

I only have a pair of scissors.
When I look for you I find
water or moving shadow
when you are lost already.
