Petal
Delicate the petal lay
Alighting from the bow
Across those soft and parting lips
I hold that moment now
As if she were beneath me so
No cares for all to see
To pluck that subtle pinkly plate
And set all nature free
How still she lies, how it still shines
Such warmth a man should know
Kept fresh within a memory
Of forty years ago.

Simply light and super little poem.
We don't see enough of poetry like this on wol.
