Even now we can no longer remember how much of the world we gave up we wore the scent as lightness, a butterfly cloaked in streams of silver linings and evenings slow decent to something familiar-- between days as they open to night and I imagine you in fragrance of morning a ghost walking away from the amber of memory it comes too from the ache of stones and grains of sand laying heavy upon earth that I would pass through this journey along the lines of time that wore the cold of December I've pressed my palms to this place before so he could see inside me and touch the roots of my being for this seasons return I pray as I write these pages for the smoke to rise while we find the way to speak those words when I awoke the window sills were wet from the passing storm and the garden still sits in silence waiting for the bloom "to all that was once green" ~~*~~ My Shadow is the only one that walks beside me ~~**~~ |

You intermingle nature, memories, and love so beautifully here and what I like the best from your poem is the promise of bloom. I do soooo look forward to spring. Enjoyed reading and I do think that you exceeded here on this challenge. Very Good. -Bob |
