I read a billboard:
Gifting made easy.
I mourned suddenly
the loss of giving.
And I thought
of the green-glazed vase
curved like cupped hands
(or your opalescent cheek)
on top of the cabinet.
Or the perfect green field
and the turquoise sea.
I would like to give
them all to you.
But they
are already yours.
