Dreaming Of You

The sun seeps through a gap                                        
and paints a golden disc                                        
on the peach-coloured wall.                                        
I open the curtains;                                                  
afternoon light spills in.                                                  

The sight of the azure                                                  
sky transports me to a                                                  
hot summer evening that                                        
I spent with you. We walked                                        
hand in hand by the stream.                                        

Rays bounced off the surface:                                        
a shimmering snake of                                        
liquid crystal. Laughter                                        
mingled with the sound of                                        
chirruping grasshoppers.                                        

Ox-eye daisies spied on                                        
us: swirling yellow spots                                        
surrounded by lashes.                                                  
We were happy to be                                                  
alive in that moment.                                                  

As darkness creeps in, the
sun—a splash of honey
in the clouds—seems to melt
into the chimney tops.
Still I'm dreaming of you.
