Solemn Green

It was a summer
of green dancing,

his eyes speaking,
promising light,
and she reveled,
tripping easily upon,
around,
then in light, laid under his words,
as laughter’s music swayed their times.

Books were read,
discussed, placed in trust
of lessons learned
and they, earning their right
in all ways,
spoke in churning dignity

such so, her eyes crinkled lovingly when he said

earth girls are easy,

then as pink rushed when he turned her over,
her back bare
to God’s light,
she felt him trace
letter by letter,
upon her skin,
slowly,
so that she should, could
thread
the living words as pearls,

one by one

he traced, nail to skin, with solemn
love
words he could not breathe


I
return
to
your
love
like
an
animal
in
migration

Mr. Wells, always a pleasure to see your name.  You are right...memories are made of this, as much as then, as in the future...

Thank you Choshi...I enjoyed the ending beginning, myself.

Good goosebumps, I hope, Enchantress. Thanks for your laughter...

Earth Angel, you are a muse to all...thank you for your lovely words...

How it is indeed, RL...you are a treasure.  

PS - some animal instincts are very good...thank you for enjoying this with me.

Sy, if we can delight you, then we have done something wonderful

Bob, you wonderful poet...we need more of your words, soon!

Martie, after this was written, I had hoped you would find it to share the smiles.

Much of life is indeed a migration. Finding the softness of love makes for a wondrous stopover.  KJ

Through rubble and trouble and dark of night
The yawn of a dawn will hasten the light

Hello Miss Deca, so good to see you

This is simply beautiful. Most enjoyed.

fantastically beautiful.
