in spring, i
want to make you
smile like a pink
peony in sunlight––a
petalled cathedral for
your butterfly
soul.
in summer, i
will ride your
laughter upward like a
dandelion puff above the
dizzying ambiance of your
hair.
fall will
make you glitter
like an aspen mountain––
shimmering behind closed
eyes & in the
dark.
& in winter,
long, shadowed winter––
let me hibernate in your
heart & warm your
blood with every heart
beat.
