The sky now a frozen fiery opal Dark clouds slivered the horizon She cradled her bread as if an infant Heading back through the fall infestation Upwards she climbed back into her nest Tossing keys and shedding on the hall table She created a sandwich, Dagwood would adore Her image in the hall mirror bore comfort Admiring herself with the holly still present In locks of raven hair, that spiraled Like melting licorice, flipping on Yanni Filling the empty ceilings acoustical The only light was the Dragon Fly Cast by her antique Tiffany lamp The room drenched in shades of honey She dined, until the bursting of white The laser like glow of an eerie current Rose her to seek the source of burn It laced the room in a summer sheer of day Feeling as if morn had just crowed awake But the clock handed her a dark hour She drew to the window squinting By the cheek solar heat to see Her Stranger standing just below her All things sparkled like that of wet The streets, the cars, the sidewalks Yet they were as dry as flannel cotton Surely her window panes played tricks! There before her on an autumn evening A scene was staged to bewilder Coming from the center of His heart An explosion of ethereal brilliance With a wave of his hand he disappeared Leaving her filtered with the blueness Of a neon moon that hung like a tea cup Spilling black light into her vespertine |

I would say "Bronte" has wooed this reader with her closing thoughts. Compelling, as ever. Willie B |

Wonderfully painted filled with the gift of story telling and the images of a poet. You dear lady...have a talent few possess...the ability to string together a series of poems..telling a story with each as captivating as the first. my hat is off...not only to the lady...but the poet that shares with us such wonderful works...
