Fly! Come on and play

In the jungle of my hair⁠ —

Oh, to be a child…

The full moon peeps through

Wisteria, still waiting

For me to tell her.

The wind shakes the limbs,

Spilling pink petals in pain

Over the new grave.

On cool balconies

We spoke, as moonlit water

Sparkled silently.

Under garden domes

Lilies entwine with a rose

And utter warm moan.
