SMOKE SIGNALS
20 October 2011

Sending them
secretly
in code
softly whispered songs
of longing
butterfly-touching
your reaching lips
with kiss-finger
love.

love it. it fits my Longfellow quote perfectly..does its job of banishing the thoughts of the day...

Come read to me some poem,
Some simple and heartfelt lay,
That shall soothe this restless feeling
And banishing the thoughts of day.
Longfellow
