white on white smoothly---- into flawless orb
peony opens on the verge of light
petals’ concentric clusters trimmed in red
for the cup of your mid-night parting hand
days’ longing ---- white on white bound by world
hours ---- birds homing calling into wind
rose minutes beating in rhythm of heart
time drawing near from beyond crimson cloud
how did you find your wings your way to fly
golden eyed falcon who can divert fate
can shoot out of blue sky rain of silver
gold --- make earth heaven keeping rise fall
I dreamt about you every night this week
Your name resounding off emerald sea
