Poems from Lindsey Calvert
I lived in the Spanish mountains for sixteen years where I was first inspired to write songs and poetry.
sky captured flower
essence of the summer sun
dancing in the fields
You weep remorsefully
asking for forgiveness
You could cry an ocean
into my endless desert
You wish for understanding
and you can wish...
For the first time
the baby ghosts
are staying up for Halloween
They've brushed their teeth
and combed their hair
They are perfectly neat...
For the first time
the baby ghosts
are staying up for Halloween
They've brushed their teeth
and combed their hair
They are perfectly neat...
Your little feet
have not yet touched
the earth
only weeks from birth
Your silk soft cheeks
I touch
so reverently
this miracle of love...
