silver gate
this place of peace ~

                   was once succumb to autumn
                   and woke with vowels and rhyme
                   a bud had bloomed to poetry
                   from syllables and vine
                   from tisted braid
                   of weed and verse
                   seeds undone by rain
                   essence made by longing
                   we willed to grow again
                   between the slats
                   along the way
                   on paths no longer trod
                   meadows where the soul
                   was not forsaken
                   (loves me not)

                   the slightest dream
                   when nurtured sweet
                   by kindness unopposed
                   shall garner us a garden
                   lemon trees
                   and yellow rose
                   crown to crown
                   as birth to birth
                   silence swarms in emerald wave
                   the rarest bloom we never see
                   was given us to save

                   this place of peace
                   this silver gate
                   dragons lured by pearl and drone
                   shall honor still
                   (he loves me)
                   as violets slumber on
