Painted Peonies
White Things
Friday, February 10, 2012


Fallen feathers and
lace like wings of a moth danced
on the gaps of the piano keys as
snow dissolved outside like seafoam
like foggy breath on a window on a cold day

The ivory keys felt ice cold and lonely
for they haven't been touched
in an awful long while.

The ghostly face of the walls of the room
stared back , pretending to give the lonely keys company
but even lies could be white.
