Lullaby


rain your soul's librettos down

from gossamer clouds to gift

losing your eyes of Lapis Lazuli

beneath chills that spell

my spirit core, and channel

agapē that it swallows all

euphony unworthy.

 

create new holes in me to

ache for you there, nesting

in a moment's sacred passing

even when my heart beats still.

 

you, my love, in limbo

between both worlds

need no Moon to balance

those etched mosaics of

your Dove-soft fingers

weaving Chiffon in the zephyr ~

 

stringing together literary pearls

to peel prophetic layers from the

skyseat of benevolent starlights.

 

I, who held you fragile

like precious Saffron

a mangled leaf ensnared

in a vicious storm, ripped from

mother tree.

 

my passion shall forever lay

in sweet depths of tear-dust kiss

where no Ocean dreams could

love you better in their drowning!!!

 

darling, something else

out there has lungs.

 

come ~

 

allow the words to my

lullaby to lull in your ear

as much as you and I,

together always, can breathe

them into Eternity's breath.

 

its whisper . . .
