Southern Whisper

It was a silent touch
in this southern whisper
when wind met with March
some eventide of song
when contrails streamed dust
pinked some highlight of grays
and meaning crossed quick over
some depressed sound
escaping body

and lips.

Wondering both, they, of
some dreadful fall of snow,
what tracks might show.

The moon rose
in some deep pale of
pleasure yet to know, of
someone’s eyes, as its own
scraped eastern seaboards as he
wafted a line way aloft
toward two who touched some sky

in heart’s escape of scheming hope
ala, a déux, oh, these two
who saw in some bird’s pure song
so sung, so sweet, so pure, this treat,
it winged their hearts
once more.

A Romeo? A Juliet? Nay, between
the hearts of two who beat,
a soul found mate,

thus, this love, so sweet
so sweet,
it hallows halls in faint retreat.

thus, this love, so sweet
so sweet,
it hallows halls in faint retreat.

And in the night of shallow moon
on yon mountainous rise..two hearts
shall be atune...as each now dines
the winner's prize.

Welcome back Lady In White, long time away.
