A Surfeit of Beauty

Farida Haque

--

~ a poem for tomorrows to come ~

In the dusk of an early moon rise

I keep thinking of divine gestures, and

Shards in your eyes, of promised moon shine.

And in the moment, no questions arise.

Golden memories fade down a

Blue, maroon, orange and pink sky

Respectfully making way for

Breathless intimations of

A new year of joyful sighs.

Yet, in there somewhere

A comrade in my heart

Conjures a new recipe of life.

What is to be is the best,

She whispers

A surfeit of beauty lies in

Paying the price
