Walking Toward You Sneakers grow grass-tinged, wet prairies’ green tickling back of legs, still the dew is not enough and all is in need of rain sun glints sparkle off golden-red curls, I lift my face to take in passionate rays, feeling their permanence cool breezes bring in the first thoughts of how fast summer went, after all traces of humid still hang heavy in my heart, lowering into my center, solid reminders of getting through this to you the walk is not lonely, now, for promises of all my tomorrows hang on your very word every word cherished with a spider’s silk ribbon you have bowed up all gifts ever needed a spider’s silk, so tenacious in its steeled splendor, promises are just that your word is key in doorways of many tomorrow’s to come your pledge remains so now in wet grass-stained sneaks, I shall watch the spider spin spun promises, knowing the key to life, its significance bearing more than lost hope for there is none, now as I walk toward you, and my smile shall cast shade in which we shall reside |
