today, a lemon sun twisted summer over December ice, spilling warm thoughts of picnics, skinny dipping, and bathing in the sun blind tonight, a voyeur December moon peeks through my window, cold-caressing glass ornaments with silver eyebeams-- they become fireworks on my ceiling; I watch, swallowing afterglow with a taste of wine while somewhere, embers rise from a fireplace it's a mind bend, the contrast of the orbs where seasons pass in a day, dream-gliding between wisteria climbing a picket fence and icicles freeze dried on barbed wire tonight, I will sleep alone beneath fireworks and wait for the full circle-- there is a season I've yet to know "And it was at that age...Poetry arrived in search of me...And something started in my soul."

this is one of those poems you can print out and hang on your wall, so when you wake up everyday, or go to sleep every nite--you can read it and reassure yourself, and smile. breathtaking. -chris. |
