Rodin

she is
the moon
she was
just here
she was

leaving dew
putting her
panties 
back
on

as the daily 
chase of 
the sun 
makes it
hard for me

to catch 
her or 
even
just 
get 

a glimpse
a chance
perchance
that some
happenstance

might come
along and i
get to be
more
than

a dog
howling
at her fullness
but block the sun's
sight so he doesn't see

her
and
i in a
lunar
eclipse

kiss

Nothing wrong with panties, can't think of a more polite word for it. ;), As for this piece, I love your poetic way. xomo

I thought they might think sexually and bleep me lol. But Maureen, thank you so much for your comment. Every one you send makes me strive more toward what never will be perfection.......
