give everything time
to chill itself down
or heat up, you know
a carpe diem moment
use it like a philter
your life is still extant
don't rush in like the
philistines stony mien
spring of life is done
looking forward to
a dying autumn, winter
bleakly staring at colder
threat to my cherish conceit
remembering my tears for
the peace she unwittingly
provided to me sans flesh
brown wavy hair caressed
my gaze parted on the side
fell onto her breasts tingle
her lipsticked smile simply
overpowered my personal
she opened her mouth to
discharge a blue moan
eye contact; another smile
hands searching my pride
touching my heart break
all in the spell of tomorrow

Yes, this is all a fluttering of butterflies and your outlook to Spring at the beginning of Winter ensures you both your mental as well as your physical health.

By envisioning future heart breaks, we anticipate so to say the coldness of Winter, so just wrap that vision into a very thick cover of mist and then let it melt away by the piercing sunshine of the Now!

Again,  you did a great job, Jerry!

You comments are pleasing to these old ears, Margherita. You do know how to cut the chaff from the wheat, and I think you for it.
