Letter to a Lover
Don't ask me
To desecrate a flower
With questions.
Let them keep their bloom
And me mine
Intact and shining under the moon.
Don't ask me to fly airless
--the sky has its way
and knows I would fall.
Let it keep its currents
And me mine.
Flower under moon and sky.
Fragrant is my love
Spun madly, goes sadly
Looking for the postman.
