Gratuitous poetry post

I'm going to do one every day for the holidays, because I feel like it. :-D That one's by Cilla McQueen, a New Zealand poet.

Crikey

I can't think straight
my words spin off
in sugar and spice
god you're nice
I've got a running filmstrip in my head of you
every time I close my eyes
I close my eyes quite often
I feel so good
I feel like a morning
a kiss on a ferris wheel
in a tunnel of love
I'm not quite sure what's happening
but your image is in me like a scent
all the roses in the garden are opening up at once
it's raining big round drops
of extraordinary sweetness
let me be serious
I'm in love with you
I think of you
at every
turn move
my hand
your eyes your hand
(crikey)
do the washing
dream on the doorstep
clean all the windows at high speed
get lost
stare into space
watch a
green caterpillar
spinning enough
amazingly fine silk
to let itself down smoothly
from the very top
leaf
of the tree.

<3! I love her stuff so much.
