january 12

Branches of lemon grass
Fern
Green stock
Babies breath in white and pink
Lilies
White lilacs
Palest peach colored roses
Rembrandt roses
Sheets of satin
Ribbon and lace
A banquet attended by few
Crying softly
Deep sobs
A darkened room
The end of a romance

jan 5th

Too dark
To hear
The call of the nightingale.

Too still
To know
The kiss of the night’s breeze.

Too long
To remember
The sense of the freedom.

Too soon
To end up
The whisper of the past.
