Pebble
Cascade, return!
refreshing lover;
your winter breath
gushed over me,
rushed to polish
my sharp rocky skirt --
to strand me, pumiced
on the thirsting shore.
Stream**
Pearlheart, stale,
peppered gravel;
ruling over you
I roared, transforming;
you ignored my
blurred stare:
never in my icy bed
did I hold you alone.
