snow moon




your kiss is a sonnet
wild juniper berries in tonic
from your heartbeat 
you give me garden of verses 
unrhymed poetry, earnest light
               moon tides, my lungs on fire, milk flowers turn red

    This is so wonderful, so much to love in the imagery, which I see filled with all the contrasts of fire and ice.

    you give me garden of verses
    unrhymed poetry, earnest light

    This is in keeping with expectations of loads of poetry in the coming months and they may not have to be the rhyming kinds
