Lovely Fool by Jack Savoretti

taconic

i got a bad case
of

the lonelies

last night
i walked in the kitchen
and

saw my flower
on the windowsill

all bathed
in
christmas light

(and)

the way she leaned into the cold
and bowed
her amaryllis head

i had to fight
back tears.

they're gone now,
they're

all gone.
even

when the sun shines
she

remains
in the mountain state of

timelessness.
