Day in and day out
will wonders never cease.
Textured clouds dance
round about us
as we snuggle in our sleep.
Are you wishing for an escape, love?
for I simply can't let you go
all your options are bone bare,
I hope this jollies you up
for I'm having a ball, a sestina.
I function best
with the minutest of distractions
I'm quite happy with this case
of books, this music rare
and with your guitar shooting
melodies through my hair.
Author notes
The guitar, case of Elizabeth B. Browning's books, and music that makes one scream and sigh...
