Poem Artwork

Because of you

My heart has been turned

Into the slaked lime;

From now on,

I do not worry

About your dropping out

From my life. . .

I am just about

To pop my cork,

Becoming but the cone

Of a stone pine

Wrapped into the hoarfrost

Of the late autumn.

Such a lovely saga of a cone! 'Loved it (Do I smell love in the air?)

Love ya!

A stark image if there ever was one, yet those pine cons are amazing, artful and durable (enduring). So, perhaps all is not lost. From a "slaked lime" to an exquisite pine cone, it could have been worse. John
