she lives in a lean-to surrounded by mighty oaks always seems to be fogged bound she opens her blouse takes my hands warms them on her skin giggling and quivering turns back to chopping the onions mashes the garlic dumps the onions and garlic into the cast iron Dutch oven sitting atop the wood-fired stove we hold hands watch the stew bubble and roil evening shadows are long darkness approaches, soon to envelop us we uncork the wine �October 17, 2012 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

Sounds like a perfect hideaway to me Jerry. Enjoyed your warm words. A poem is never finished, only abandoned. |

A memory to savor here, and I'm not talking about the stew. Nicely captured, Jer. Michael |

well, I know in this aspect I write from a very cold place, but I recognize and appreciate the 'warmth' in these well crafted words ![]() |
