No Curtain Call

I hear your cough
You toss and turn
In the other room
Your face turns to me
Full on in its frame
In black and white
You shine with light
On the right side
Your hair draped
Like a curtain on the left
You glide on the ice
Of a flooded field
The most artistic
Athletic legs clad
In silk stockings
Dawn strikes the window
Blue black rays
I wait for your call.
