Dec 2017
In this summer light, your face startles
Much like the sudden unveiling
Of Baroque Oil On Canvas

Your face becomes illuminated
Like an entire Universe
And I will study the threshold

Of your mouth, admiring its clear brightness
(Chiaro)...before moving up
To consider the invitation

Of your eyes, reclining into
Their obscure mellow darkness
(Oscuro)...and soon I will  recall

The arrangement of light and shade.
That is you. Forever reliving
What you have revealed to me:

Your hunger is my pleasure, your words
My truth, your song, my delight, and you,
(Chiaroscuro)...
