I saw her cry
as if a river held her tears for so long
the trees seem to forget she was there
waiting for the seasons to stop along the way

I waited for her to stumble,
To see her eyes meet me at the hint
of the branches that waited along the path

But she was unlike anything I had seen,
Black but delicate,
Almost as if you could wander into a room of mirrors,
Touching each side until the reflection turned to hers.
As she crossed the pond,
Her scent rippled through the river,
Aside the Janice streets of each neighborhood

Though, her passion waned,
Waiting to behold a long target of eyes
Like a small hint of her rosemary cough
her tired legs wrapped around me
Like a needle slowly sewing us together
Until the morning surprised the both of us.

This is really good.
I don't understand it but I love it.
However, don't worry about that I'm not the brightest light in the sky.

Good stuff!

Tired, eh? Yet slippery as the injured bird or overnoticed tortoise, and to wit fairly indefatigable?

Another intersing write. Enjoyable to read and attempt to comprehend at least a little.

Thanks, Easy...always appreciate your comments.  I'm sure your grasp of the poem is not too far off.  Sometimes the words just flow, and they can be read any way you fancy to.

A compilation of sights and sounds and outright mastery of meaning.

To mimic is a form of praise unless
you have no thoughts of your own

Jerry, thanks for the kind words.  I hope to only improve, though, as I continue onward.
