Summer’s last breath stirred honeysuckle and mint, sepia veil of delicate seeking nectar from her sigh as amber locks spilled across shadowed forest green, framing her face imagining, I traced downturn of lip, cleft of chin. Soon, this canopy will color and fall leaving season’s fragrant recall where once her quiet settled me now a whispered memory and the sweet breath of late summer days. |

Oh yum. This is canicularity at it's peak of perfection, right before a dramatic decrescendo into autumnal glory. Can I keep this? Good.  If I were to touch you, would you bleed a velvet river, running miracles through the sodden ground? --Moi |

Wow - my word Yummy was already used, but what the heck - Yummy! SusanHappiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |

It is so easy to personalize this, and see two people...it is also very easy to see a young man holding a leaf in his hand, tracing the veins of what remains, as it is now orphaned from its mother tree... it is a beautiful late summer day poem. |

Duncan, You do your feminine side very well! This is fabulous and if you doubt that check out the ladies replies. Dang!  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

a whisper of rhyme and scream of beauty... you always know how to envoke a feeling of pure connection with your words.  "cast me gently into the morning, for the night has been unkind" |
