The Not-Quite-A-Sonnet-Sonnet
Over hill, over my wail/
Through fog, and dale,/
Over pink, comes the night,/
Through verdant exhale,/
Willow bends and whispers,/
Swallows powder on the moon,/
Swerve in light shadows,/
Give the soul up and swoon,/
The bite of the wind can not be seen:/
Through blue borage in water her heart is born,/
Its petals and wings we deeply mourn,/
Those emeralds winking, woodsy ferns/
Her freckles dance tonight from here,/
And land upon the blossom’s ear,/
Goodnight, soft clouds, you make no sound,/
Our girl, her dust and voice now sleep underground.
