A POEM FOR FEBRUARY

This poem is dedicated to Harvey Holton, a gifted poet and friend, who passed away last month. The world is the worse, less magical and brave, for the loss of you, dear Harvey.

 

Love me, love me not

 

A blue turbulence of sea

sweeps the beach's hairline

like a long-haired girl's fretful hand.


The small boy casts stones into the waves,

dripping himself back into the water,

tear by pebble-thrown tear.
