The Warp

Darling, how describe

darling how describe the wonder that you were

now I remember beneath the pergola

the morning light splashing over your shoulders

in your blue shirt

your milky skin

and at Florence too I remember your gold hair

float among stone palazzi dark on trams

shakily travelling down corridors

of stone

and at Venice boatborne, the oily waters

swelling beneath you, smokily the street lamps

flared and you my Goddess

glowing over the sea-waves more

sultry than

the waters

and now may every year dear

lovely flesh and spirit

behold you radiant and lovely

as this one

and every time and place as now bring worship

and love of poets always

as of this one
