Celestial Coming Poem by rosalinda flores martinez

I held on tight to the clouds

last night, when

your mouth embraced my mouth

each breath adored my soul.

I felt calmness in autumn

last night, when

your eyes sought

mourned each falling leaf.

Shadow and light pressed limb after limb, wind

shuddered waves

the floating galaxy last night in

your force.

Last night, eternity

was mine lain

on hiding rainbows,

I moaned my greatest fright, I

cried my sweetest blink, when

you tucked the stars, last night

into

my womb.
