The eve begins
to butter
my skin

A herd of shiver
grazes
on my arm

The shy of a voice
walks
on my ear

A wisp
is looking
for
its purse

The day is now
no longer
broken

The night is laying on
her side

I can almost hear
her tresses

Slowly,
licking at
her eyes

A what, a could, a have
and a been

Gently part,
a wounded way

As it may returns
to march

Every road is not
away

All the words unspoken
are

The pieces, of
apart

You’re the leave that never
left

You’re the hands around
my heart

Only a great chef can take unlikely food combinations and make them delicious. Likewise, only a masterful poet can combine unlikely words and come up with such a great poem!~L

So many good lines Richy...the leave that never left speaks volumes.
I have a special place in my heart like that too.  Hugs you

Lori G.. i don't know if you knew but I'm a chef instructor.. and it is true for me at least.. that cooking is like writing.. they both have a myriad of ingredients to choose from to make the end product, sweet, savory, or, both.. thank you my friend for the lovely comments.. have a yummy weekend

A fine word-tapestry, of which, 'You're the leave that never left', is the finest stitch.
