Your words like hummingbirds hover across
Their blushing flowers that take in the flutter
Of your flight and let them echo through my
Auditory passages; the sound flows across my
Nerves like honey curling around the thumb of
A beekeeper as he softly squeezes the hive,and
Your tongue presses against my mind releasing
Oxytocin like pollen: and you vapourise clouds of
Powdered sugar into the air with your pirouetting
Eyes that skirt my gaze, and like rivers they feed
Into my ocean; oceans that were sitting on the
Sills of their windows looking out at the setting
Winter sun, but are now falling, feet first, eyes
Looking up, down, past earth, into wells that ran
Dry only because they were too deep too have
A bottom-- and storms rage in their turbid waters,
Fed by rivers flowing through valleys
With hummingbirds and bees.
