Until the End of Time
The day after they met
she saw a moon star
a place like home inside her heart.
He tasted the scent of lily white,
a craving for air under the sea.
They startled ocean waves with
longing and desire,
black widow with empty nest,
nirvana and passing experience of
hurricane.
They witnessed the sight of
a blue bird in the desert
with her feathers as swift as air
and blue as cornflowers.
