Sculpted
seduction
Flower of
decadence and sorrow
Flowing opal in
the wind of silence
Bride of your own kind
Heroine for the light fall
that rests with simplicity of
a child's whispered prayer on
that alabaster bell of your long stem
Prophecy of sorrow
you greet the dying
Passion in the hand of God,
your bend in the wind
is a flame for the living.
from the chapbook, Pink & Naked in the Ultra-Violet Life, poems by Donna Gebron published by Vinegar Hill Press, 1996
Donna left this life last week at her home in Lake Elsinore. She was a great Romantic, a beautiful soul and a delightful friend.
A beautiful portrait of Donna Gebron may be found at photographer Mark Savage's website, Souls and Passions: Portraits of L.A. Poets .
