Wanderlust Sunday drips in delicious weaving fabric of fog curled around this slow village rendering colorful fabric crossing to stone churches Trace this map of years it paves a citrus grove that still harbors ancient scent I can see the sheltering in this oak of years glistening crystal rain long into the sun of time Blond and brittle coloring book of porch and dark eyed treasure trash heavy alley of time seeps into this watching that stays To wander distance from this street is paper and words I travel to wild Mayan hearts where strands of alamo trees dissect the page of newsprint in the Sunday paper These years of Sunday has tamed my skin not absorbed my lust for going Could I choose between this mild love lined street and that far off serendipity I would be gone into the heart of other |

Martie- Reading one of your beautiful free-vers presentations is like being there. It is serendipity by design ! A treasured wanderlust appeal. Can you tell that I like it? I do. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Reading your poetry is like floating in a canoe. Just float as the current carries you along to enjoy the scenery. |

The word I reconized in just on look For a Wander tour you took My heart away with you Martie oh how sweet of you And here I thought you call that "Hiking"  The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |

Thanks Marge--if only my poetry could take me there, for I'm aware I'm still in this chair and serendipity left without me. Mike--You can ride in my canoe any time. Thank you! Helmut--You can call it hiking, and I'm sure glad your heart went along. Thanks for the sweet words. Denise and Liz--Let's go, no snow, just friends, no end |
