Forget-me-not Blue is the Night by Aristi Trendel

                             For Pedro Zweig

A double bed, a single sleeper

a mind at unrest

Verwirrung, Liebchen

rolling terms

his, hers

Fireflies in the eyes

metaphors of every sort

conceits of yore

convoluted words

his, hers

Lullabies of love

songs of themselves

whispered, sung

in synesthetic spurts

forget-me-not blue is the night

Comments

This is really beautifully rendered, Aristi.
