If you read my book sneak-peek-y thing, you will know that my character Lani writes poems from her perspective. I'll be sharing a few here :)
#1
To love a girl
With every ounce of feather
Softness between my fingertips
To hear the tinkling of laughter as
She tosses the cashmere of her hair back
The arc and swell of cresting strawberry waves
To count the freckles on her back and
Connect the dots like constellations
To build a fort of dreams laced
Between sheets
I wonder
If I’m drawn to feathers to evade past bricks
