Silk Kimono
Vintage silk lavender kimono falls to the floor
An uncovering; a tender blush from head to toe
Exposing more than a naked body
Sweet scent of a sea breeze
Aromatherapy pours a peaceful offering
To sooth an aching soul
When the tide shifts from high to low
Even though there is an overflow
Of liquid emotion filling the quiet corners
Of this receptive heart
The emptiness echo’s from shore to shore
Engulfing a shaken spirit that reaches out
For love once more…
