look at stars

look at stars
find a new way
to say

windows
have weathered
and songs

keep me
in this place

gentle now
as starlight
on my skin

pull her

pull her
down onto
heart

then
pull down
stars

and moon

give them
to her

love

 

read her poem

read her poem
like blanket

pull it
onto me

day goes
all I

aspire
is love

go where
the clouds

go

 

your sky

your sky
all over me

I show you
my wings

the fine rows
of feather

I preen them
sitting

on a branch
then I

rise upward
I could go

to the moon

 

there are skies

there are skies
tie myself
to string

fall in a meadow
of daisy

I want to be
loved?

I can love the sky
looking upward

tie string to a leaf go
where the wind goes

 

could a flower remember

could a flower remember
the sky
when it closes
the last time
give it to seed
so they know?
