For Emily, Whenever I May Find Her

What i dream i had:

Pressed in organdy;

Clothed in crinoline of smoky burgundy;

Softer than the rain.

I wandered empty streets

Down past the shop displays.

I heard cathedral bells

Tripping down the alley ways,

As i walked on.



And when you ran to me

Your cheeks flushed with the night.

We walked on frosted fields of juniper and lamplight,

I held your hand.

And when i awoke and felt you warm and near,

I kissed your honey hair with my grateful tears.

Oh i love you, girl.

Oh, i love you.
