Your picture




I paint you with the greenness of gardens
and the silent blue of skies,
mix in silver dew from the hedgerows,
put the sunrise in you eyes.

I keep you safe in my wardrobe
of never changing time
wrapped in white silken bedsheets
scented with lemon and lime.

I glaze you with moonlight and sparkle
from the stars above the town
and hang you up in my bedroom
for no one but me to own.
