I made a paper fountain
to please my darling's eye;
I painted her a garden
with crimson butterflies,
alleys lined with rosemary,
pomegranate trees,
irises and peonies and wild
anemones;
slender silver olives
to catch the sighing breeze,
tiny golden bells like beetles
hidden in their leaves.
I made a little paper bird,
turquoise paper sky,
a lark to charm my darling
and teach her how to fly...
for Evie
Turquoise lullaby
