April 30: resolve something in a poem [58]
Resolving you

I stand too far and see a blob I do not know
one with the crowd, fuzzy cipher, and yet aglow,

and I am attracted, like a moth to the flame
eager to embrace your essence, to ask your name.

I come too close and see only black and white dots,
brown mole on your lip, a whisker missed, aging spots.

When I open my heart I see you dearly now:
soft wrinkles, firm grip, under young strong brows:

love's knot.

KE [177.58] (30.april.2020)

Alexandrine rhyming couplets.

Notes:

Resolve: (of something seen at a distance) turn into a different form when seen more clearly.
"the orange glow resolved itself into four lanterns"
Similar: turn into, be transformed into, become clearly visible as, change into, metamorphose into, be transmuted into (of optical or photographic equipment) separate or distinguish between (closely adjacent objects).
"Hubble was able to resolve six variable stars in M31"
separately distinguish (peaks in a graph or spectrum).
