'Baby': A Poem by Courtenay S Gray

BABY

You are an amorist.

Silky eyes of wonder,

The dew from trees–

We drink like milk.

Holy Water rained from the

skies.

The mind is an island,

We can explore it if we use

our compass.

Delicate touch of silver,

Magical working dust.

Dulcet memories,

Sometimes soured by

tragedy.
