~I posted this once as a reply to another poem, but I hadn't posted it here yet...~

my feet carried my heart down a path
I'd not traversed before
the air carried a scent, wild and free
I knew not what it foretold
or what I should find
if my course continued so
the sky cracked with thunder's ire
the earth shook to it's very core
the sea creatures gave rise to their haunting refrain
as rocks and trees, mountains and waters
all chorused in a melodic chime
the winds spake your name to my heart
before my mind e'er knew it's exsistence
my lips longed for the sweet fruit of your kiss
though my eyes had ne'er drowned in the tides of yours
the breeze whispered your love to me
on the currents of an unknown sky

"I would rather sit on a pumpkin, and have it all to myself,
than to be crowded on a velvet cushion."
.....Henry David Thoreau
