Poetry For Everyday People
Majesty
Peeling
a cucumber
starring out
the kitchen window
it's 92 degrees
but all I see
is snow
falling down
on sculptures
fountains
gargoyles
angels
black iron fence
calm
silence
it's spring
in my snow
red roses with
white flakes
blue butterflies
humming birds
kissing honeysuckle
rows of purple lavender
arbors of climbing
white roses and
orange morning glory,
I light
a lilac candle,
pour you
a glass of red wine,
put a pillow
behind your back,
I gently crush
a cucumber
with fresh mint,
sage, jasmine,
and rose petals,
to massage and
kiss your feet.
