WINGS IN AMBER, by IRENE WILDE
First Line: A bee betrayed in amber
Last Line: Of your eyes.
First Line: A bee betrayed in amber
Last Line: Of your eyes.
A bee betrayed in amber,
Beauty's prize,
Is less confirmed in ornate
Sacrifice
Than ardent wings that reaching
May not rise
Within the amber precinct
Of your eyes.
