Whitewash Poem by Susan Lacovara

Whitewash

Rating: 5.0


Oh, to wish away the lonely
Set the ambers, to the skies
Free the sparrow, to her singing
Sprinkled light, of fireflies

Oh, to drift upon the ocean
Still, the swelling thoughts, gone gray
Circle in the swirling current
Forget the shift of tide, today

Oh, to whitewash what's unnerving
Gather grace, with guided ease
Lose the taste of salted teardrops
Wiped away on love's long sleeve.

So bittersweet the remembrance of love's sorrow... what a joy to read your pen... what a longing for the words to be true.
