WHISTLING SHADE


So Much

by Mary Logue

 

Gently reach out to me and

I will cross the sky for you.

 

We will meet where the tree

stands taller than the stars.

 

I think love is like plowing

a field, slow and steady,

 

dropping seeds as you go.

When harvest comes

 

we’ll wade deep into flowers.

We won’t know what to do

 

with so much beauty

planted in our chests.
