Love and Oranges

Love, you are an orange.
Outside, you're tough
                    and bumpy
                    and smelling of all the spices
in the world.

Love, you are an orange.
And on the inside
                    peeled past the skin
You glow, golden succulent sweet
                    smelling of spice and acceptance
Wondering me, laid open to me
                    little golden ball
                    that fell into the well.

Love, you are an orange.
A C.S. Lewis riddle
                    each inner slice of you
                    half-moon of light
Bigger than a universe
                    curled up at my side.

Lindley Williamson, February 2001
