Affection

in an unfriendly snowy city
dear affection is
sorely missed

a room with furniture
varnished
accentuated with fresh
white magnolia on
a vase

apples and peaches
in a basket
on an island of light
in the kitchen

still there is no
affection
a vacant room speaks
and looks

there is something missing still
