Painter Arthur Hughes
in pre-raphaelite who' who's
'April Love'* a reverse ecphrasis
depicting a love affair in crisis
Ms. Sunshine,
In and out, in and out
hovers of infinity
flickers, a pale moonlight
firefly flight with the gift of sight
out and in, out and in
changing without
challangeing within
a chameleon entrusted
to rearrange
you say, you stay
the wild your prey
falling
longing
green to jade to aqua marine
quality not rarely see
dancing through the naked fields
mouthing whispers, words wet
Freudian slips
moments held, never forgets
the stamen of steam
dripping, we're wet
as clouds kiss us back
I'm hers
as midnight settles us down
new day slowly sips
Cristal
wishes imbibed
caressing me with
her wonderment
