Happy birthday Franci Louann

Author of Beach Cardiology has a birthday today and to celebrate I upload a poem from Franci's chapbook.

Ecstasy

perhaps it was the red wine and this week’s 

news about Christ’s face

appearing on a condo wall in Ladysmith

burgundy, crimson, scarlet

when we loved, red flowed through me

I was androgynous

partly Christ, partly Mary, your Sacred Heart

robes, banners, crucifix

burgundy, crimson, scarlet

when our love came, red flowed through me
