Anticipating the flutter of wings
when the wind picks up
before and after hours

Dancing in the light
a place in the shade
where the world stands still
and I am the only one spinning
dizzy in your presence

Turning liquid in the sun
bronze to gold
shimmering gloss
like the perfect kiss with wings
savoring the residue of you
sheer on cellophane

Black asphalt ripples
burning beneath the pavement
parallel parked in compact spaces
a slow melt down
steaming in the heat ~~

Luncheons are made on a whim
for a token not taken for granted
so much has changed
and remains the same
sawing back and forth on a limb

Illegal tender
paid a thousand times over
my last penny for your thoughts
I'd spend at your concessions

Traded up
for the pure pleasure
of something cool to sip
when my reservation's missed
steaming in the heat~~

Anticipating the flutter of wings
when the wind picks up
before and after hours

until next time....

Well Blues, if he's going to make you write like this I hope he keeps coming back!

I really like the idea of that....
Open and free thoughts beautifully expressed!
