In a Clear-Glass Bottle

A heart
Gentle and innocent
Thrumming strings of life that
Thump with the blood beneath soft skin.
Air whirls through ice that flushes
Scarlet in the light.

A quiet beat that
Echoes in the warm night air,
A whisper in the ear
Of sighing Summer days
And the hazy nights beneath the moon.

Memories tinkle beneath the glass
Like butterflies trapped
In a clear-glass bottle

Oh, but that was
Many years ago.

And as each player moves their piece, confident and tall
They forget that they can move themselves, in the greatest game of all

Taylor,

I read this poem earlier today and thought it was really good. I had to come in tonight to tell you that I am looking forward to reading more of your poetry. Like the one posted in CA too.

I'm a little late on the response, but I've been working on some new ones. Hope you understand
