For techincal reasons beyond my ability to comprehend, I can’t post the whole picture in the same post as the details. So, here are the poem and picture one more time.
Together in Cordoba – 2008
The light like
honey-fire
And the night warm-scentedIn the Cathedral-Mosque
walking among the columns,
together
among the ancient columns
like palm stems
under arches
like palm fronds
and the windows of stone-laceIn the golden light before the door
the young couple
Greeting? Parting?
They clung to one another.

So glad you liked it, Savannah!
John, this is stunning. So simple and so exquisite. I’d brought a tingle to the spine and a bit of moisture to the old 61-y-old eyes. Beautiful memories. Well done.
Thank you Peter. I’m glad you liked it.
