Susan Lacovara - Satellite Feed

The jigsaw puzzle map
I have constructed with tiny hands
Shifting states to move you closer
Keep you tethered to my time zone
I like to think of you
As building bridges to get to me
Mowing fields to soon know my footfall
Gathering twigs to burn
As a light in your window
I doodle your name on napkins and matchbooks
Adding my initials to a carved heart
Visit you via Google aerial view
Satellite feed to feed my cravings
Could you wave towards the stars
And wish me there....
So very close to heaven
