Pictures
irrelevant cascading
through my eyes
each person
lifelessly living in frozen motions
of memory

did we not meet under the stars
in Savannah
with white trees of moss
laughing houses posing old smiles
carefully caressing the time of day;
with slow walks in the squares
notions of young, peering
into the history of the south
breath,
unsteady clinging to damp air
we giggled
eating ice cream
melting into our hands

did we?

ahhhhh..... the sensual nights
with warm carriage rides
lighting bugs
and magnolias entertaining the wind

did we not love?

You're a natural at it..

you envoke emotion with the way you put your words together..

and this one is being saved.
