Weak Spots Ix

The muse of a dreamy gaze, The memory of a mutual moment, Heightened affection and excitement, An intake of breath for more The expansion of the stars In a stretch of sky above the world, Glimmering gently— Affecting profoundly A tree that casts the wanting shade That forms its body in the day For love to birth under its branches— Confessions uttered and deeds done A freshness wafting into the nostrils Stretching beyond the tallest branch Clouds parting with the wind's guidance Revealing the mighty faces of the heavens 2.9.2020
