Amaryllis

How Amorous is the "Ryllis"
How Naked are our Beds
How do we Fly with Wingless Backs
And Feathers in our Heads

Nodding in sheer Wonder
Like open Nectar, Breeds
And Covet what is Velvet
Our Arms, Embracing Needs

How Stringent are our Sheets
Where a Garden should Replace
Where the Scent of Amaryllis, Wills us
To seek our Lover's Face?

And How we Sow
Is what Love Knows...
