Flowery Ripples and Jewels

By esteemed guest poet Nolcha Fox1



1.
Meteor showers sing through the sky,
the night ablaze with falling jewels.

2.
Sunrise slips his fingers
through the bottoms of the curtains.

3.
I swallow your death,
spit it out as a ball.

4.
Her dress a ripple, a breezy sail
as she sashays along.

5.
Time will smooth out all our sharp edges,
if only I can wait to be worn.
