Again once more the twig, is a ledge stories of season cling, to the edge A trickle of poetry missing conceive sprinkle of suicide shower, of leaves Reigning supreme leaflets of litter covering a bicycle, with petals of rust The bough is a shiver, branch without sleeves stealers of sunlight pile, of thieves And the sea and the sun crawled out, to the brim the harvest has fallen far, from the limb Dripping like drafts of dream and last writes tales of time only tears, can recite Pressed upon rest upon roots, of the birth all of our wishes lie with the earth Deep in the shadow of soil and clay beast of our burdens let us, now prey And so the shoes kicked through the drifts of reds and gold and ambers, stiff Hands together held, afar only we, know who we are That is all we’ll ever need fertile hearth and spark, of seed Deep within our fondness grew that day in fall, I fell for you [This message has been edited by Richy (10-05-2012 01:58 PM).] |

Hands together held, afar only we, know who we are ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yea that!! Richy, you have so much talent and so much class! I mean heck you can write about a heap of fallen leaves and make it beautiful, and I feel beautiful too after reading you. Your poems are little charms attached to my heart. Precious poetry in motion, love the fall. x/o |
