would you
believe
a pale
blue sky
dappled
with black
and flowered
dye
as tiger skin
clouds
the heavens

would you believe
that
church bells
ring
and silent
bring
the close
unto the
day

would
you believe
our bodies
key to
happiness
and bliss
lies not
alone
in carnal
thought
or deed
but in
the
gentle
kindness
of a
kiss
