Texas Silhouette

He had flown in, hot and dry,
painting deserts with a
Gila monster tail,
his thoughts outracing
tumbleweeds in a sand storm,

just like she remembered.

He stood now, bared chest and
bluejeans-lanky

at her window, absently minding
the lace between thumb and
forefinger,
staring.

She wondered how far
his horizons would take him,
this next time,
minus ten and counting.

She moved a strand of red hair
back from her cheek,
great green bedroom eyes shining,
and asked,

“breakfast?”

“Yeah,” he drawled,

“peaches, and cream.”

Decaflame, nice to see you posting again. Hey, I'd like to see a sequel to this, okay?

The stars will shine when I am gone,
the earth will turn on as before,
the gulls, still race along the shore,
the morning star, still kiss the dawn
