Interlude Part1

aspen
    trembling
heaven
    upon wing
alights
   to sing
lit
by sparkling
       eyes
casts
shadows
one by one:
     my poverty
     sighed sotly
    and could not
    sleep
such
painful
breath
     void of
     start or stop
     hope and fear
in
  an 
     undertone

part 1FP  inspired by Cristina Rossetti Old world Thicket
