A dance in the cosmic wind: Cafe Continental

2013/02/10

Cafe Continental

Reflected saffron light

fragrant citrus

no acid bite to this kiss

only sweetness

lingering

between grain and nuts

grapes on the vine

leaves in the rain

you in me

around me through me

everything

that I dare not

open my eyes

Thanks to to The Mag
