Tribute in Amoretti 2
Starry Night Over the Rhone Van Gogh

I dreamed and drew you once again, but 
my Rhone, often fast, would not be still;
vibrating and torched like lights deep 
reflected into my heart; you seated upon 

an evening night’s pier, and full moon before 
counting all the stars.  Then we had to up 
and walk to a open car and empty world 
ahead, to contain a growing pain for one 

who unknowingly left her standing on a
path, with words of a promise unfulfilled.
Midnight blues pervade my heavens’  light, 
scattered about by your wonderful heart

Love can be a drawn sketch that is kept
long and not imbued with hue until too late.
