Your eyes are Himalayan blue,
they mutate from sparkling stars to the silver
of a cold planet.
With indifference you defeat me
until I am nothing more than an empty
vessel sailed away to write love letters
on the wings of distant angels.
When your nights are long
you may find me in the brush of a
homeless Chartreux winding about your
feet or in the sunflower eyes of a girl
passing by.
Vincent Van Gogh

I want a Chartreux! I promise when it brushed around my feet, I would remember you.
Well, my alley cats will have to do until I find a homeless one. OMG! They cost a pretty penny.
What terrific prose, Holly. You are hereby, officially, my fave poet. ❦❦❦

Thankfully we were not in the cone of Michael, having survived Andrew where we did not even have a landmark left to guide us home if we ventured out, my heart breaks for my neighbors to the north. Thank you dear Resa for thinking of us way down here xoxoxo

Mr. Gogh sure could draw good. Why does art work so well with poetry? I await your learned response, human female.

Invoke an emotional response… like a punch to the jaw? I get you. My human male side gets you loud and clear.
