sighs
by Peter Humphreyslight
shafting
through
gnarled
yet tender
trees
water
gushing
pushing
over broken
weir
flows
lying
under me
your hair
falls splayed
on fresh
mown grass
your eyes
sky clear
as clouds
above
reflect in
pools below
tender mercies
gentle courtesies
heavy hearts and
deep deep
sighs awaken
dawns soft call
