Seven and eight take a turn past the gate
of the orchard basking in blue;
as fairytale skies speckle paint in young eyes,
two children are running to you.

The sun makes amends for the shadows it lends
coaxing embers on dusk's golden leaves.
Two smiles now revealed tumble home through the field,
scented sycamore watches and weaves.

Four soles without sound dust the warm broken ground
and crunch ancient paths past the corn;
while this soft silhouette lets the autumn forget
it must sow the new season at dawn

Wow, what word artistry! Into my favorites it goes. I could SEE and HEAR those laughing children.

very nice imagery... a scene painted from the ordinary yet captured through the eyes of someone that sees...

I enjoyed
