the uneven land

oops
|
in the tenth century
a moorish man
against the red hills of marrakesh
enters the garden
like a moon
bends down and
takes her hand
kisses it
slowly
never moving his eyes
from hers
here
on the ocean
in the fall
the shadows stretch long down the sidewalks
gold light
blur of umber and sienna your
chalk blue eyes
making a
seafarer of me
in my boat of solitude
i rest
my oars
and will know when
you lift yourself
from sitting
and take my hand
onto your
mouth.

These words took me to places , times and feelings instantly and overwhelmingly. Your gift for describing intimacy almost exceeds comprehnsion. Love. Wanting love. Feeling love. Seeing Love. Imagining Love. We're all in the same vessel of solitude together. For better or for Iceberg.
