sun loses height into black hungry arms her east darkens cold kisses through tempered glass the moon visits |
Four in the morning rabbit in the window well-- who rescues whom a spring serenade complete in his arrival - red-winged blackbird |
when it is enough
to be held by blue perfection Michigan's moon Morning Blush sun spokes through pines’ lashes kiss her eyelids and color each cheek |
againnot bodies together
but words a gateway to closer exchanged for touch again after deveining each leaf holding each stone in our mouths we missed something again grit left after spitting pine needles in my hair an extra note caught in the warbler's chest and yet again Missing TulumI miss sleeping in front of the sea
and waking to sensuous rhythms forgetting what it is to need I miss raising my body towards the sun in float and carefree drift pretending that this is all that there ever was I miss the freshness of the earth in each dinner plate and the wine that slipped so easily past the tongue I miss the bath big enough for two and the jasmine oils it left on our skin before entanglement of perfectly pressed sheets And I miss how my sleeping shirt still smells of the sea, of the sun-kissed heat and oh those undulating, tidal nights |
blueyour lilt slows the sunset
and falling asleep with my fingertips on your shoulder – what's that like? I don't love in degrees you can have it all or donate it to the sky's graveyard full of dead light do you remember Capri? the grotto remains my favorite color - that's probably all that really matters anymore Selfieblack bra strap
cutting the curved glacier cinnamon tresses falling waiting for fingers sunlight's shoulder softly softly What Isn't Minemy hand
separating pages into holy moments my bosom the waiting cradle of what he meant to say my exhale the collusion in letting go |
