Unending

In downy pink I watch you go
my sun,
at night you will pluck moon flowers.

In half-moon eclipse
the morning glory will wake me up
in dew, alighting whole night

on the rose branch. I still smell
your lips. The head aches in
singing dark.

Welcome again, my ghosts of new year.

The use of the flowers here moon flower, morning glory, and rose brings this write to life. Keep the creative pen flowing. Sara
