day 5 - poem 6

I know not of the sun
Getting up from the bed of the eastern sea
But I have seen you raise eyelids to look up.

May not have touched with hands
Dew-drops dancing on a rose petal
I have but felt your tender lips.

They talk of the warmth of dove's wings
Who never have snuggled and
Slept in your arms.

With closed eyes when I soak-in,
The scent of your breath
I wish, I never breathe out again.

The eighth note, I discovered
Was the music in your laugh
More than the whisper of the stream.

The tired sun melts into the outstretched
Palm of the horizon and
I have found rest in your heart.
