Cuddles
With the pup
A blanket
Mozart
And my favorite sweet treat
Beauty lies
In the trees
In the leaves
In the air
In the seas
In the clouds
In the streams
And in between
A little tiered dress
With ruffle trim
Braces on
Custom shoes
Diamond studs
Dinner party alfresco
Steak-frites
Perrier-Jouet
Bringing France
And my guests
With crusty baguettes
And creme brûlée’s
Cleane me
Redeem
The sinfulness
I can’t escape
The truth
I can’t admit
I’m awash
In fear
A dull ache
That wreaks havoc
With my witness
And love
For thee
Lazy days
In the pool
Rainy days
And rummy
Late nights
And Milano cookies
Raiding your jewels
And shoes
That didn’t fit
An ocean view
That brought
A tear with
Beauty
Man couldn’t replicate
But the memories
Of you
Are the
Best gift
I can’t replace
You told me
I’d miss you
It isn’t until now
How much
Truth
Can be held
In a few words
Swimming
In a sea
Of tulle
Ribbons
And bows
On the
Steps
Off to the Met
Eating canapés
And admiring
Monets and Manets
In heaven
Dreaming
Of the city
That never
Sleeps
