nature and me

They call it sacrifice— imagine me a tiny poppy

on a field of green felt—brief blip of color,

knowing how it could have been, pale maples drowsing

like a second sleep above our temperaments.

That was the day your mesmerized went AWOL on the shore.

EAch star, you said, was the same star. Beneath our sunny

beach blanket an anonymous moisture spread like fur.
Its getting dark and darker.
