Somewhat after the Chinese
Since you’ve disappeared I’m always gazing through glass wishing you’ll emerge. Between cloudy cars along any windowed street when I pass I search. In plush coffee bars I check thronged seaters, spin round each time the door swings. Such words I’ll summon when you come in. You’ll blush, smile, amazed, I still care. ©Paul Sutherland (From 'Amoretti) |
