An Easter poem for my wife written in 2023.

April’s Allegory: A Composition for My Wife

April. Month of suddeness and sly smiles.

She—

my wife,

translates

day

into

a dialect of delight.

Her laughter?

A syntax of spices.

Her gaze?

A grammar of glow.

Life, she stirs—

not with spoons, but

with whispers of whims.

In her arms,

my worries

unword themselves.

Our kitchen?

A lexicon of longings—

each dish,

a poem,

seasoned with sensuality.

She, an April tale—

woven with winks of warmth,

and whispers of wild.

Touch—

light as a lexeme,

casts shadows

that dance

like doubt dispelled.

A saucy minx,

mapping mirth

onto the mundane.

Moves?

A mosaic of moments,

each step

a stanza,

her curves,

cantos of captivation.

April’s wine—

sweet on our lips,

in her,

my narrative finds

its nucleus.

With every dawn,

grateful,

for this gift—

her presence,

a palimpsest of passion.

The universe awaits your call for a poem to unfold from blankets warm and toasty to jam an jelly with breakfast cooing doves 🕊️ peacefully approaching.

Wonderful thank you. ❤ Currently I just have pigeons at dawn, but I fondly listen to their Spring excitement in flapping wings and cooing and I am glad they have each other 🙂

The universe provides coos and some delights. Feathers fly, wings flutter free from branches boughs a show of songs to listen to all day long.

I have every confidence that they will.

And how do you know that someone hasn’t already written poems about you?

Then I beg them not be shy! Come forth and make yourselves known passion suitors ...😂

Be careful what you wish for…

Yes indeed! Tomorrow I will leave the house to find annoying suitors throwing themselves at my feet all over the town and disturbing my peaceful morning walk!
