Thaw
The lake
Is back--
White caps
Oxygenating--
Kisses
Susurrousing--
Heaven
Heaved.
This lung
Scintillates
A frozen
No to
Yes--
Yes--
Yes--
|
|
I Want You
Near as autumn
Air
That ripens
And gleans
The green
Conspicuously--
Cornucopiously
Colors
Every
Crystal
Heartbeat
Hot.
Each falling
Leaf
Is
A breathless
Sigh--
I
Miss
Your touch.
|
|
Learning to Speak
When you
Went away
There was no
One
To
Phone--
No voice
To vowel
My consonant
Hollow--
No face
To replace
Familiar
Memory.
When you
Went away
My heart
Beat mute--
Each syllable
Ventriculating
To conjugate
The language
Of you.
