Send me a secret story in a song just for me
Send me a grain of dust
Send me a heartbeat flipped, squeezed with lemon juice, soaked with sugar
Send me the sharp stars
Send me the winks in the water
Send me
Send me songs, photographs, breaths, petals, kisses, muddy puddles
Send send
Send send me the satellites and the lights of Japan and the sizzle of electric eels
Send send send
Send me the weave and the weft, the ragged starts and endings
Send

    I particularly like the ‘songs, photographs, breaths, petals, kisses, muddy puddles’.
    I really liked your #fridayflash too 🙂

    I don’t always ‘get’ poetry, but this jumped out at me, I don’t even know why, perhaps because I sensed that it was about yearning..
