blue lotus

December 9, 2021 by Michael Guerin

let me bathe
your naked body with dew
harvested
from the blue lotus.

let my thumb
gently wipe away each tear
which spills
from kohl-stained eyes.

let this whispered prayer
erase all fear
and pierce the shadows
surrounding
your precious heart.

let the fragrance of your lotus
wash me clean,
that I may taste sweet
nectar on the tip
of my tongue.
