Love is the night flower

Love is the night
flower
that blooms
even when
the sun has gone -
right after
it stretches
shadows long
before silent trees
that watch
the ocean
in Rhode Island,
darkens blades
of grass on
an infinite plain in
Texas,
in Montana melts
the last spring
dusting
of snow,
and disappears
behind treeless
mountains
in Mexico.
