Poetry Blogs (2021, beauty)

If your minds eye was open,

Would you consider an unabashed divulgance?

Your forthright nature checks my exubernace

Your beauty makes me timourous

I learned to be strong to no longer rely on your love

You thought I was weak,

For feeling too much

Now, you're the one ...

A hyper-sensitivity of feeling
your art connects across the senses
The roughness of ancient bark
beneath gentle fingertips
A kiss from rock-pool water
warm against bare ankles

glimmer from a lake

all lost with eyelids closed
