L'aura del Campo

Rainbows (Zmitri)

Rainbows

Today we make love for the first time, Zmitri.
My lava rock melts your glacial countenance.
I bask in your steamy smile.
And in the warm ensuing flood,
we ride the cresting waves through time;
alack, to go our separate ways.
You'll have this memory of hiss and beams;
I'll forever inhale your cooling quench of thirst.
What have we thrust upon this universe?
O Zmitri, lover upon first sight, first ____
A billion years from now a poetic fish,
on some insignificant spinning rock,
will best express this moment, remembering us.
And all will be rainbow, rainbow, rainbow.

Inspired by Ann-Lisa who wanted a Zmitri poem... so I wrote a new one.
"rainbow, rainbow, rainbow" read "The Fish" by Elizabeth Bishop.
