Finely Tuned

 

If I am breathless in your January,
give me from the orchestra of your heart
the cool music that brings slow mood shifts
in a southern style;
then, if I shiver,
let me trace backwards,
the moments
from your illusive outline
in silver light that beckons
one to come starry eyed
into naked night’s flight
only to soar in and out
landing in fields of endless ecstasy.
