you are gone

like summer
like Diana in Paris
like a snowy owl in Windsor

the last time you lay beside me
you were a princess,
the white mask of your breasts
disappearing
in the snow
that drifted
across
the fields
of your skin

like those golden dreams
gathered
in the sweep
of the croupier’s arm

now,
memories of you
are
aching
wearied
climbers
clinging
to the glacier of my soul

Now that is a nice passage

Anthony~I am never ever disappointed with your posts.
"snowy owl in Windsor"

Hey!  I live in Windsor!
Unless you meant the one in England?

Enjoyed this..
Hugs~Nancy

No spring, nor summer beauty
hath such grace...
As I have seen in one autumnal face.
