A chance meeting on the square and the chill of autumn's kiss brings longing for summer's wine Warmth so the soul may linger... Anesthetic to the ache of regret I cover it neatly with a smile wondering if you hear my heart break over footsteps in the leaves Know that with every footfall A piece of me Shatters, splintering my soul Like an icicle falling from tree In the hush of winter's death Does not the ache in my eyes Plead for you to warm me With your kiss- Protect me with your strength Caress the softness of my skin Like the wrap of a warm spring day And I shall whisper your name to the wind Show me that you will not throw me away As the season rids itself of life To hibernate in the shield of cold indifference Utter words that bind me, willingly unto you, so that I may hear your voice in the swirl of November wind and know this love survives. |

The truth: Ed and I started talking (poetry of course) and found a lot in common. I suggested we duet. He wrote most of it and I am in complete awe. Thank you Thank you Koko and Karilea! |
