For my bridegroom
These are the scraps I’ve saved from my years
the beautiful blue of bliss
purple of passion, reds and gold
the rosy hues faded by tears
greens of springtime, yellows untold
to make me a many colored robe
bordered with wintry white hoar
that will dazzle the eyes
of my bridegroom
La Mort
