sitting at a café
cappuccino
cool breeze
coming from the ocean
a voice that is undeniable
music in every syllable
Narcissus drawn from the center
Aphrodite and pulled in dissimilar directions
Pluto surrounds us
beams of light around your face
Thanatos death of a loved one

I must be missing something. Very pleasant poem until the last line... Thanatos death of a loved one... Thanatos is death, right? It seems to me like pleasurable moments followed by a surprise moment. But that's not what I'm reading in the comments. In any case, a very touching poem.
ReplyDeleteDiane thanks for the comment and yes I just threw in the Greek gods as a touch!
ReplyDeleteAnd death just fit at the end!
Pamela
Ah -- I was with Diane until I read the comments. That was a slam-dunk!
ReplyDeletethanks for that Diane!
