I will?

I WILL forget you,

perhaps
in a day,
or a week,

maybe
in a month,
or a year,

but...

I will forget you--

at least when
I fall into
that unwaking
sleep,

Or perchance...

that

one

small

secret

that lies
between us

will mingle
with dust

and
rest

with my bones
eternally.

Fragments

Raindrops falling
through leaves
whisper
your name.

Gold-rimmed clouds
at sunset
mirror
your smile.

Mountain
brooks' splash
peals with
your silver
laughter.

Shaded forest
breezes bring
your caress
to my cheek.

Soft hills
rimming
the wash
paint
the curve
of your back
and the
gentle swell
of your breast.

My world
is filled
with you,
yet
I am
alone.
