I walked among the fallen leaves, and felt your hand in mine; I turned to speak and naught was there, but gnarled trees entwined. I sat along the winter's beach, and heard your steps near me, when I looked up to see your face, a gull flew out to sea. Among the flowers in springtime green, I sat in mild repose. You touched my cheek, I reached for you, and found my brightest rose. In summer's shade my thoughts go back; thru' mounded years they send, my memories to the time I found a new and loving friend. ------------------ ~*~ I write to know I am alive ~*~ |

Hope ya'll like it too, if not, it wouldnt be the first time ------------------ ~*~ Time erases and rewrites all the lines. What remains is the poetry! ~*~ |
