Under the Arbor
On our wedding night,
you welcomed me with
limes and firecakes.
One sweetened my mouth,
the other scented my skin
and made me think of home.
When you returned
sea legs and salty tales,
I welcomed you with
sugared tea and boughs of lime
to balance the brine
and fragrance our bed.
And as you leave,
greyed and grieving,
I wash your feet in rosewater,
rub your hands with
lime blossoms
for safe passage from
this love.
