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.
