Gold

Gold

A Poem by Shawn Purcell
"

About the beautiful scent of someone's hair.

"

Your gold hair waves sloppily in the

East wind’s breeze.

The midday sun has helped us lose track of

 

Our minutes. Why is it you rest like a

Damp flag

Lost in a calm wind?

 

I make love in your scalp and find

Love in her hair

As you wait patiently

 

For the foamy clouds

To open

And share with you a drink.

 

A thirsty man might find a field of

Barley. I find I am lost

In a field of gold.
