Silver Winks
Dec 10, 2022
Moon shines wrinkles
Upon the faces of clouds
Cheeks of that first love
You ran into three decades post.
A lonely star burns
Itchy silver winks
The laughter in her eyes
Floods the heart’s crevices.
Tilt your neck to the skies
Into these nights unfair
Why did those you love
Come by so rare?
