Levity
She said she levitated in the hallway
Appearing in the dark wooden mirror
Puppeting her reflection in the glass.
There she was, framed
By a colourful but delicate bell collection,
Undusted, one rung for dinner.
She too a belle,
And in moments of levity
Must have been smiling or serene...
I imagine her rainbow
The three walls of the hall,
Her elaborate dreamworld
Sneaking out of the letterbox
And taking this long to get here...
