Love-Fool

In days gone of you;
I look back to picnic rugs
seasides
and coffee shops.

I see you there
almost perfect with the
straightness of your smile
your eyes to the sky all
flighty and fickle.

and

there I am
flowing on a string
in the wind,
flapping carelessly
like those clowns with stars
in their eyes,
love-sick complexions
and decorated lips:

tasting the sand.

fate is not just
whose cooking smells good
but which way the wind blows

(Ani DiFranco)

Wow -- fine stuff!

You're already on my "Read Instantly" list...I wish I had a "Read Before It's Even Posted" list, so I could give you a promotion!

Maree, this is so pretty. I especially
liked this ending......

there I am
flowing on a string
in the wind,
flapping carelessly
like those clowns with stars
in their eyes,
love-sick complexions
and decorated lips:

tasting the sand.

Very beautiful...
