She—so that water turns to transparent flame around,
One sip will lift you where ringing stars are streaming,
She—so that sky embraces with pearl wings that astound,
With iridescent chords, black dotted lines through air are gleaming.
She—so that throat trembles with nightingale’s cardiogram trill,
So in your heart, a chill, and a rainbow floods your eyes,
She—so that she can no longer conceal what she feels,
And all the world breaks into topazes and cries.
