To Oz Moses, Horticulturist


Plucked by a cryptic hand, no more 
Flower trysts for you, my friend 

Who cultivated the light openly 
Hoping it would never end.

  1. Lovely and quite touching, with a "deep lightness" worthy of a latterday Herrick.

  2. Thanks so much Tom but--

    If I had but one iota of the "deep lightness" of a Herrick
    To keep my poetry high and enlightened,
    I wouldn't need a derrick.
