Love Poem: La Femme Eileen

La Femme Eileen

Woman!
Tenderness
Dissolves
Through
Your eyes glance
Like a young water stream
That makes his way
Through the Mississippi

Time,
Space,
Big towns,
Villages,
Corn and soybean fields,
Desert and dunes,
The Atlantic,
The Caspian Sea, 
Dissolve
At the edge
Of your lips.
