The Wait



In the twinkle periwinkle of night's 
   soft kiss
In the bask of the velvet black moon-drop
   sea
Out on the balcony I wait for thee


Stars like pearls effervescent
   opalescent shimmer
atop canopies of orange blossoms


Time evades I count days until your
breath I taste again
   Not in phantoms of dreams
   but in flesh warm and moist


I wait atop the trees until you call
   out for me
And then to you I run
