EPILOGUE
OF A ROMANCE
Narcissus
Camellia
Prunus
Three
flowers of spring
The
Chinese said
symbols
of new life
new
beginnings.
They
ate plums
The
deep wine fruit
Oozing
upon the lips.
She
carried daffodils
dripping
with bridal creeper.
He wore
a pink camellia
in his
lapel.
When
winter struck
Baring
the branches of the plum
He was
living with a divorcee
in
Joondalup.
She had
gone home to mother.
