she leans against ocher painted hill settles heavy skirts about her takes the shade of blue parasol for she must wait till the sun slides behind the mountains her gaze falls into tear rivulets where the light hides slow moments sun fingers the sides of mountains whispers watch I have done it before do you doubt me now? she shudders sun explodes onto rock painting the mauve of his kiss covered eyelids lilac shadow of his hands royal saffron of his kingly name and the true red of his rock heart colors climb the mountains dawdling in crevices peeking about rocks tormenting her heart is still waiting swiftly the sun gathers his colors and sweeps them skyward night is sudden a fast falling of dark she closes the parasol sees no more |

sun explodes onto rock painting the mauve of his kiss covered eyelids lilac shadow of his hands royal saffron of his kingly name and the true red of his rock heart ~*~ some sharp imagery here, Kate. Very nice! |
