Cadence haunts my memory,
measured step,
treasured voice,
rising .
Count the stairs as he mounts,
waiting time for me floats.
Waiting.
Frozen time.
Ice blue eyes,
match his snow capped alpine skies
Muscles trained on rock and ice,
glacier smooth his vice-like thighs.
Hands that touched Kathmandu’s shrines.
Skin as soft as eiderdown,
laugh lines dance around his eyes.
Silver crowns his brow
Pulls me laughing to my bed.
Fears as melting memory.
Feel not envy for lost time,
horde love's shadows sublime

returned love, YES, picture katmandu
