I am a red winged imagination on the tip of your finger able to fly only on your breath I fill my eyes with your light lick salt from your hand feet move as I await your pleasure you do not cup me in safety nor palm me but leave me suspended by my own hope knotted in my dreams then touch of your lips just as my heart thinks to flutter you fold my wings tuck me as you would a pair of glasses into the shirt pocket of your complacency where I lie until once again I gain your finger aware if you but rub your eye I will be lost forever |

Oh, Lady, this one is marvelous. "just as my heart thinks to flutter you fold my wings tuck me as you would a pair of glasses into the shirt pocket of your complacency where I lie" How beautifully said the hope and hopeless all together and hopeless and hope again. I love this one very much. beautiful and again beautiful |

I especially love the 1st line!: “I am a red winged imagination” and: “my...hope knotted in my dreams” : also, the following is truly grand!: “you fold my wings tuck me... ...into the shirt pocket of your complacency” a fine ‘write’! |

A beautiful poem, Kate, as all your work is. I hope you will forgive me for saying that you deserve so much better than to be treated like that. - Owl |
