Come back to me Nancy (or if not, then Faye) (Free verse) by T. Jonathron Remp
Softly,
Running her Nancy-like fingers through
his
dandelion-like hair,
left bare
In the moonlight there,
under the potted plants
left to die
-t by not getting enough
sun
li
-ght.
colored wheels spin
spin
grin and also sprink
le
.
.
.
. sitting and climbing
the wired brim sings,
blings,
keeps the eyes dry
and filled, with
fire flies
she is a poet
but she had no idea
that she was one,
or would ever be likened to one
via metaphor
she stops.
but moves.
she does not appear to be moving, but
if you look up close
she is moving like a rose
grows,
when too much sunlight
hits the floating kite,
and we can
limit our searching
and lurching
finally
pinely waiting.
clinking, climbing
never rhyming (and yet doing it)
will they ever make a crew cut
blue hat
red hut
shut
up-- she said to my neighbor
and weigh
as the waitor
dropped his tray
and lost his way
Please Nancy, or if not then at least
Faye--
my lost love-glove:
find your way
home,
to me: the treasure-less throne of Rome
please come back (one of you at least,
and at most)
