A Vigil for Eden
she waits for her lover
in the blue room
seated with her back
to the window,
the view of the street
and the rest of the world
she waits, prettied up
with a bow of blossoms
in her black hair
she longs for his caress,
his smell, his taste,
his touch . . .
she waits, clutches
herself, envisions
their bodies
entwined
in a coital knot
of love
she waits, a platter
at her side, a vase
of fresh cut flowers
and an apple
reminds her of the garden
she wishes to enter
she waits, pursed lips
and wide eyes
open to desire
the eternal moment
of paradise
she waits . . .
