The FAB&PP Poem of the Month for June 2002


perugia and the morning of remembered dreams

lead pencil
dead weight the
valley greens
a palette of
their own

the memory
the end
    the view of
    Assisi
    on the hillside
    glowing
    in the
    Umbrian
    evening

no distance
no time

á lavanderia
á Rome
home, like heaven,
beckons with a
crooked finger

we fly off with
the wind

dreams remembered
fade while
memories form
and
the future and
the past
resume
