`
Every time I see the moon
I remember that hole
you ripped in the sky
the night we first kissed.
~~~
Bared and branched out
I climb her trunk
with no ropes
and no net
clinging, clawing
my way up
from the foot-root
to the pinnacle prize
of sunlit lips
and adoring eyes
exhausted
I collapse into limbs
soft as beech
where sleep comes
in the swaying breeze.
~~~
and twilight never comes;
even beyond midnight
the sun shines brightly
lying softly beside me.
