The format of this poem is important to me, so I put a screenshot first. ✌️
Winter sheets hold the sun and seas
Springy autumn. Summer red-orange hue. Satin slivers.
My eyes stabilize in yours another stiffened clock frame.
Fingers traveling up, and draping blanketing space.
Plush.
Cheery gusts of primal music, snowy, hot.
Primordial galaxies, melded, bright-cherry, rippling.
Blizzard.
The wild pulsations, immortalized, torrid light infinite.
Crystals.
Drip.
Rascally smiles, sea legs on Earth.
Rain washes other dimensions.
Gravity falls on warm backs.
The sun, last kiss, sleeps. The pearly moon closes its lid.
