Balsa

Looking up, she feels an incredible sense of PEACE. Yes, that is the man that I will MARRY. She smiles as he TALKS on and on about something… She is too distracted by the movement of his lips, the way he gestures when excited by an idea. It really doesn’t matter what he is talking about – how to make airplane models from BALSA wood or the latest developments in classical archaeology. She hears all with the ears of love and is content.

One of life’s GREAT pleasures?
A SCALP massage, so simple
Imagine floating down river,
LASSO in hand, on a raft
made of BALSA,
lover’s fingers in my hair
all ten working in circles
scent of jasmine in the air
