Love Poem: Silver Linings

Silver Linings

Every cloud needs 
a Silver Lining – though, my
preference leans more toward
gold: as sunlight, clinging to
the inside of a wave, opening
my eyes to deeper transparency

Eyes – what do they really
show us? God thought them
necessary enough – though
I have conjured better visions
when they have failed me – 
closing my mind to tragedies
and their lingering ghosts

greater love needing no particular
face nor form –
