will you row across
the lake with me?

    shiver of pink

by your caramel brown
coffee never was
smooth like water

    lying with a sky

un-trespassed
poured of its own sweetness
moonlight limes your tongue
lures rhymes that
prime

    upturned trees

brush skies blushed
plum and dusty silver
stars

    slow your eyes
