You were writing on my retina:
I read you when you spelled my name
in sunlight rays:
"My Sun"
I poured me over you
- good mellow wine -
which fired deep-rooted desire:
"Drink me, Beloved"!
"Why do you ask me that"?
(you sounded slightly mad ...)
"You know you're mine"
Then you left me
in that forgotten goblet
where I lost my taste ...
And now I scribble
Love in sediment
and shame
myra

Your work has an aura about it, like that of Rumi's, classical beauty and like all say, great imagery. Thank you for sharing it.
