Softer still

Freshly unfolded leaves
breeze touch at a desert sunset 
light drops at a high altitude sunrise 
a baby's cheek
after bath, after wipes
and talcum blush
all soft
as other things unnamed
and yet
softer still is 
moment-after gaze
birthed by love's timeless submissions
and yet again
the silence 
of departures
inevitable
[in the name of love]
is softer still
so much, 
so much
softer.
