The Heightsby Jadene Felina StevensYou preferred the view from the second story and yet, that half-opened door At night, lilies drew you to the window …and then you paused from the cares of the day …you had to tiptoe down to wade among the lilies. You, who turned to the gardens of the night who traversed imagined worlds you would reach into the blossoming conflagrations gather a few stems to carry away to study at your leisure to seek the fire behind the lily. Thinking of Emily Dickinson and her nightly studies. You can email Jadine at: saltwindspoet@hotmail.com
