Stutters

Let it stand
gestures unappealable
songs less recognizable

Touching has gone the way
of old hats bought on a whim
A fedora's brim capped with dust
the warmth of a wearer's brow
its felt will kiss no more

Folded hands
resolute in conviction
the dying game has come and gone
Time stutters for no one's stumbling
let the earth find your gate
brisk and teeming
There in the near light
a cradle waits to coddle
your crimson need

what a FANTASTIC line.....very profound piece

Poetic verse nestled in the warmth of my heart, reveals the sweet yearnings of my soul....
