She says she doesn't write poetry. I disagree. Her eyes, capable of bending light, colored like storm clouds and dewy heavens, damp and lambent, like raindrops on a dove's back--- they are as expressive as song, as moving as a melody. She returns to me like familiar verse, so easy on my tongue. She departs like a fading sigh, always leaving me breathless. She takes everything that is beautiful about this world and concentrates it into a glance; she blots out the sun with a wink. Grace endures in her slightest gesture, symmetry in her vaguest thought, and art in her voice. She says she doesn't write poetry. I disagree.
