📚words tucked between lines-
daisies and sunflowers bloom—
Maria's smile drifts
I see her walking
through woodwinds and blades of grass
down to the seashore
Time stands ever still
in the sunshine of her life—
I miss Maria

in sunsets and books,
and all the storms in your eyes,
the one that slows down in rain
just to kiss the drops on your lips
rests his head on your lap
on those long winter nights,
and squeezes your hand on
a Sunday's summer walk

In a few days I leave Bermuda
and meet you in the heart of
the garden, where I am happiest
loving you among the daisies
and the roses in your hair
The air is dull until I kiss those
sweet lips beneath star by star
in the sapphire sky.

The days have become shorter, the chill bites the air
and as I'm walking back through the apple trees,
I think of that time the curve of your hip leaned
against the cinnamon bark and with your book
held so close, I felt a pang of envy.

Everything pulsing outside this window
reminds me of you. When I hear the wind
whispering along shutters and verandas,
the cloths on cafe tables, I think of autumn
through your hair, envision your glistening pearl
skin below the moon.

I cannot always bear this beautiful quiet,
not when I see you in the breath of flowers,
in the rain drops slowly gathering
on the window frame. I feel the wind on my skin
and remember the tenderness in your touch,
delicate and summer-warm.
Isabel, my pulse aches.

I'm sitting between tables,
staring at the hours split apart
the shadow-wrinkled light,
I don't care for the mysteries
on these walls, or the cold
meal on my plate, or the visitors
that have come and gone
I miss you beyond anything

I find your shadow along
the mist and dust,
anywhere I pause
I think of you between doorways,
windows, damp with rain
and when I lean beside this bridge,
I feel my heart plunging.
My soul is a wave
you catch with your arms

This warm orange breeze caught my attention
and changed my thought, to remember the most
wonderful day where I was sitting in the shade
of the creek tree and your heart trailed along
on water, sparkled like a star had fallen—
I was in love.

I'd like to return
to our quiet sidewalk
conversations
The violet Van Gogh sky
that lead us across
a spring dusted track
The vine-curling arched bridge
where we tangled our first kiss
with the restless stream under our feet

passing lines
a soft voice
of many springs,
the breath of wonder
that strokes and spreads
a quilt of stories
It breaks her dawn,
splits the moon,
reflects the light
of all her compassed seasons

the sound of life
coming and going
the first breath, the last
the calmer storm
the march of rippling waves
the humming harmony
evaporating moments
we wish would never cease
sands under our feet
sun-warmth on our faces
hearts pounding softer
and softer

in the mist
in the petals of dahlias
and rosy calla lilies
in the lost bird looking for spring,
the piece of a lone puzzle
a doubt
a promise
the slipping of a hand
in another hand
below and above
every breath of air,
there is a song

Perhaps there is a soft song
in the sun-kissed blossom that
tangles itself in the eye of a fragrant storm
I imagine it must be a splendid thing,
such as a small flower, searching for
nothing more than a drop of water

whisper my name
over your scattered papers,
notebooks and lonely spaces
stained with poetry, thoughts
and your clever ideas
say it, when you tilt your head
in an angle intriguing to light,
when your mind wanders in the
heartstrings of bees and butterflies
under the pupil of the moon

curls like a cat on her lap,
settles feather-soft kisses on her wrists,
and sends a thousand drowning springs
under her skin, then once more,
a current of promises rise in her eyes.

in the splashes of rivers and seas,
in the flame of light
that moves in the spiraling
and likeness of shape
I fall in love, easily,
with everything i can catch
with my hands
and collect scarlet heartbeats
in the locket behind my ribcage

consumed by madness in the world,
where nothing seems familiar,
yesterdays without heartbeats
Even (drift)wood has nowhere to go,
and love letters have faded in pockets,
the sun is hazed with mischief
and the moon has lost its silver smile

how dense your heart has become!
