Urns and Nightingales

Your whiteness sits

absorbing pigments.

Pages like light wings

perch,

anticipating my quill

(plucked from your dryadic plume)

in your high tree of inspirations.


 

I reach, but my efforts crack

the clay of your leaf-fringed intricacy.

My page,

a bride unravished,

makes contact with the pen:

ever, ever kissing.
