But there was fire in that first kiss.
Among the ochres and pinks and semi-tropics
of my Charleston home, you caught me under a pink snow
of petals falling in waves and drifts in the desert-
orange light of gloaming

~ ohhh what a gorgeous visual that is...

and all through this beautiful poem is the most breathtaking imagery
and swells of emotion, all delicately draped with the slightest whisper of melancholy
and that closing is perfect...

I love what you've done with this one, Jess...LOVE it!!!!

*warm hugs*
