Tonic-Touch
When I gaze
In an uneasy anticipation,
At your face from the terrace
All that I see
Is a pair of wide open eyes
Following me against
The blue background of the sky.
In a moment’s time
Your eyes gain
A benign dimension
And encompass me
With an ease,
And lift my agony
As if it were a quill.
Your words,
As sweet as you are,
Embalm my bruised frame
And fiery spirit in no time.
Your tonic-touch
Served with the compassion
Of a lovely angle
Holds my injured being
With the intimacy
Of a divine fragrance
That clings to the flowers of the valley.
