Thinking of a Face
lover number one
thinking of a face
my love reaches great heights ....
I am the falcon
lover number two
bowed in purity
my ceremony of tea
I give willingly
there is peace to the falcon
as he sleeps upon my breast
***The face of whom lover number one speaks can not
be visualized by the reader. Rather only by the two lovers,
who know what she looks like. So, it remains a haiku within
a haiku, an enigma somewhat.
