Love Poem: A Moment

A Moment

How white and blue together recollect us
to the summer sky and the imagined swallows
darting in exquisite geometry
under the great domed space of the heavens,
like the Basilica in Constantinople
containing and giving space.
And how you held me for a moment that was infinite
and then you were gone like an angel fearing enchantment
into some finite boundaried world
