With Love

Within the rumpled crinkled wings
of time
soft and tender fleeting life
stretches and floats
and finds in tear a looking glass
to see the flash of green and blue
that you have folded
like fresh cotton cloth
across my heart with love

And displayed so
the crease remains
for in the drawer I open
your name engraved so clear
sweet and pungent with aroma
of roses and a four leaf clover
pressed against
the line dried fragile
filigree of tender lettering

So spread across the lap of time
I feel its imprint in my soul
that stole this word lit imagery
and placed it so upon my day
to light the smallest place in me
where darkness caught
you found
and thought to fill
with the light of you

The only thing I like better than reading a magnificent breathtakingly beautiful poem is reading it again. Thanks for reposting it, Martie!

Martie,
Like finding a rose
pressed and dried in a book,
the ghost of oil and fragrance.

Another poem of splendor. Your words caress a mind. Enjoyed!
