Notes About The Poem

Imagine

Imagine 
     everlasting 
          rapture.

 Just imagine 
      a Shangri-La to
            escape to...

and be,
     just us two.
          Prithee,

my love, let's
     gallivant 
          through our dream's verdure, 

a much welcome respite 
     from...
          the world's craziness

                    (Yalto)
