A COUPLE OF COUPLETS TIMES TWO

Michael Edwards

 

 

The text read out inaudita

The message borne con brio.

 

Though she lived in a landscape of marble

the dust lay thick in gutters.

 

She stretched her wings when darkness fell

and flew around the lamp of love.

 

 

The evening wears on and the decibels rise

in the house where the nectar flows.

            You are a master of couplets: the brush and the pen!
