Was it yesterday when...
rains fell and filled
a shallow green gourd with the
sweetness of you. A moment
before my yearning lips thirsted to
kiss away the single crystal droplet
that clung stubbornly at the brink.

Yesterday when I whispered tender morsels
of love to you as you slept and I fumbled
into the next song as a Nightingale
complemented a solitary duet.

Yesterday when silver flakes fell and
trees clung to icicles as pure
waters dripped and sounds of
a locomotive hummed a lonely beggar's
tune.

Tell me, was it yesterday when the
green of your eyes told me no, not
yesterday.....today.

You pen such amazing lines Barry. It's just perfect.
