your pearls almost touch
your folded hands-
another thing just out of reach.
The fold in your fingers
is not that of a well-starched sheet
or a crisp ironed sleeve
but of a rose tucked in
around it's greenest self
or a spring
tight coiled.
It seems they might burst
or bloom
with only the right touch
into wings
touching, reaching, everything.
