Billet Doux, Oiseaux

Amour, A little letter for you, And a few words to state the sweet obvious. Keep the love I write of folded up in paper, Our origami correspondence, if you will. Swallows, ravens, cranes and swans, Enough for an aviary of everything you ever need to know. Un-caged, un-clipped, unending, Free to the parchment blue. Mon amant comme un oiseau, My lover like the sky. I remain yours.
