A Patio That Houses Heaven
Would you like some wine with evening,
two or three bottles
and some splice of moon?
Would you mind the
moon in its usual place
and a patio that houses heaven?
Would you like it on a slope
with the sky bending to you
as you serenely close your eyes,
where you can reach out and touch the stars?
Wouldn’t it be lovely where
the entrance is so welcoming, you don’t want to leave?
