When your heart softens to a cottony wool

When your heart softens to a cottony wool

And melts from the waxy moonlight

Light footed clouds pass by on the wings of silence 

Ant tracks  begin to look like verses  of a lonely poet

Slender  spider webs  enclose you in a  prison.of steel grids

Wisps of gentle wind scorches your face 

The colors of fresh blooms,

intense, unrelenting, 

Chars you to cinders

And from the ashes a voice of love emerges

Seizes your heart , as if it were a criminal

Frog marches  it to a land of sorrows

And brings in you a joyous relief

Life, death, pain, misfortunes dwindle

A dew drop falling from a slimy slender  leaf

tears flow like lava, burning your essence

Arms that could nourish you are seeking minerals 

Are bent in supplication for eternity

I seek a glimpse of your love, a flicker.

So  my  love for you in  a catacomb

Of honey suckers.
