monarchs sail plashless
while her shards of deceit pierce
my aorta, ripe

winter's unfeeling river

sea of white -- one white 
behold the howls the screaming
of callous wind gusts

tentative outreach
heartbeat ignites yearning love
her soft hand clasps mine

ridge obscure burnt slate
leap of faith a second wind
drop and plumes spread wide
