said she, ‘a golden orb that isn’t true, like you and me.’
‘no, you glanced—look – conceive the kind-red-soul’

her hands gently crossed,
and her head half high with a sparkled smile,
and a moist blue eye, a soft slender form
her skin soft and warm, as she reached for the dawn
but turned from the gold and smiled
‘i’m yours.’
