I had a little book

a secret book of poems about you.

Silly poems maybe

in a secret book.

One day, opening the book

I found an eyelash

black as black

between the pages

like a sweet pressed flower.

Did you find my book?

Did you take a look?

Hi Ann,

Just to let you know that I'm enjoying reading your work. I especially like your eclectic mix of styles, themes and subjects. You obviously have a lively and thoughtful mind.

Regards,
A.E.

Lovely. As Cynthia says....everything....and yet scarcely anything at all...that is the magic of poetry to me...it can say so much more in so few carefully chosen and arranged words that just, somehow....work.

This works for me.

Many thanks.

I thought I had commented yesterday. I really like this. It needs no explanation. It just - is. Funny how amazing poems can be like that sometimes - no-thing and everything at the same time.

Do you want him to
Are you able to
live with the consequence
hot or cold
I wish you find your wishes
all come true
