The rain on the cabin windows
drifts like rinse waves in a car wash.
My fingers searching minor sevenths
my ardent gaze the portside rail.
to see Jazna leaning there.

The summer's marbled skies spread wide
we'd laugh amidst the blowing spray
her listing form against the rail.
I tune to open G where all
blues and heartaches follow when.

From sacred space her spirit falls;
A surreal vision cosmos sent.
Devolved from heavy humid mist
her blue-eyed radiance beams
in quondam pose leaning there.

With swollen suck of breath to heart
my ebbing guitar descants play
to searing pains of her demise.
I cry out with odes and tears
to see Jazna leaning there.

ethome--oh my, this is so moody with loss and full of such great imagery...the second to last stanza...exquisite!!  The whole poem is splendid...very well done!
