lustre

 
pages...delicate & aged
once empty...mere potential
naked
unexpressed
now lay spread
slightly crinkled & raised
where daisies slowly drying
left their shapes
brilliantly impressed
scent of ink sinking deeply
infusing with beauty
...with agony...with grief...& delight
I read what they bleed
as the luster embedded in paper
infuses
caresses
embraces
until the words begin to glow
far deeper than the surface
and wrap themselves with loving fingers
gently around my soul
