Tuesday At The Cider Mill



I could bite into an apple,

And then run it down your summer-darkened shoulder

In a wet kiss.


I could trail my fingertips

Along your ribbed tank as if I were creeping through cat-tails

Like a black tabby.


I could fall in love with you

Any day of the week, as if your long hair were leaves

And I were the breeze.


Kiss me in October,

We'll buy a bag of donuts;

I'll give you my hoodie to wear

And my heart to keep,


When the days grow short

But no less warm for that.
