Dear Vita
Kind & Secret
I wrote to you today
To give freely all my thank-yous
and lavish heaps of praise

For nothing is more lovely
than the deep pools of yours eyes
reflecting glittering beauty
private stars in purple skies

Dear Vita
is asleep now
she’s lain away her fears
she dreams of flourishing postscripts
signed in letters born of tears

Dear Vita
Kind & Secret
I wrote to you today
Dear Vita
Kind & Secret
You become all worlds to me
