One of those days

Tonight the lamplight swirls and glistens
Melting itself upon my face
I'm hanging my silhouette near the shoreline
I'm swimming underneath in the noontime

~"Melting Alone" by Sixpence None the Richer.

corner florist--
last lily in his pail
sold for a kiss

~This came in eleventh in an online haiku competition. It was thrilling because the other poems were of very high standards.
