3 Poems by Njeri Faith

"Your Eyes"

Beckon
with only a stare,
who could resist
this endless flight?

Eyes deep as cavernous pools,
like gravity,
floods engulf me
and I drown,
in this newness of life,
while laughing.
"Haiku 7"

Connected like a puzzle,
so cliqued, we laugh at
the thoughts of togetherness.
"Subtlety"

As gentle as
soft, secret fingers,
she delicately
plucks away every petal
of my flower
before I even realize
that I am exposed
to the core!
