Saturday Morning

 

 

Saturday morning

After the moon

And I don’t know

What it was,

But I kept going back

To her eyes,

Was it a haunting

Longing loneliness

Or just naturally

Seductive,

And her lips,

Some say lips

Are clues

To the mystery

Of other places,

What traces they

Were leaving,

And her hair,

Flowing Godiva like

Out of sight

Over her left

Shoulder,

Made one think

Of night

On this

Saturday morning

After the moon.
