A Prelude seems rightly sensible allowing memory’s drift to fill in rifts of time, to decipher through suspended mist allowed to gather in elder eyes, looking back on way back when preambling that day was rightly one of the arousings, for mist’s recall, clear, pure as the fog it came in on, is still cleansing, a miasma of awakening, bearing ~*~ quiet inhale, hold, exhale of living met morn’s fog, before others’ arousal, a feel of cool on cool, pillow as chill as the foggy morn which seeped in through screens of canvassed flaps, and peering dark green leaves unified and hid amid dew’s gray, as closer than should be, bluebird perched, and mind recalls its beckon to break dawn, which would behind silver curtains hide, but still, bird trilled, enticing if not the sun, me small sounds of slow moving young bodies, stirring humid scents, soon to warm the chill with laughter, but not yet, not just yet… a smell of tang, bunked beds creak in cabined hibernation, somehow that mist that preludes dawn makes metal sing, certainly exuding reminders of copper, iron, and alloys, bent ~*~ so only the blue, fog, and I, cool on cool touched, existed, registering sounds wound round, feelings felt fine, pillow’s tick having let loose night’s hold so that all senses, then, brought here, now having known the gold of that day as it was unfolded still gleams yes, as is, and was, that morn of ’63, of then, was only the prelude to all tomorrows…. /pip/Forum44/HTML/000037.html [This message has been edited by Sunshine (edited 09-30-2001).] |
