She Woke She Woke

She Woke She Woke

She woke she woke at last 
through thin curtain wove
light of dawn stretching stretching 
stretching deep contented love 

Sleep and sleep again 
drifting warm lagoon of time
hazy beams of dusty light 
kiss caress her waking mind

Cotton flowers of deep tsunami's
wave upon wave her duvet wrought
a kraken stirred and she smiled
time to leave she heard it's thought

A butterfly skims the cotton sea
no care at all for deaths pursuance
landing while with trembling limb
she eyes that lepidopteral nuisance 

Oh come on kitty purred the kraken
summer days waits-not for we
lets butter toast and lap warm milk
admire our garden's sweet beauty
