Evocation

It isn't your body that still beckons me
From the eyelid of the doorway
Or the mischief and promise
In your sigh and in  your smile
It isn't your  warmth in the private of  places
Or your eyes' dilation at various stages
Not the coupling of our heart-beats
Nor the whisper of your skin

It is none of these.

What most  visits my memory and recalls you again
Is the scent of your hair when we kissed in the rain.
