Some Words, I Cannot Snare |

Some words, I cannot snare. Like a lion, slow to prey I cannot catch them all. You, muse, are the illusive, graceful impala; gliding, quick as lightening - teasing the savanna breeze with your scent. I taste you from afar. Laying in the burning grass, I have sensed your coming and going, all the day long. Your supple movements belie a vigilance, transformed to breathless flight. There's no other like you! An empty horizon fills my eyes, as the sun becomes one with earth. And all around the hidden sing a song of your arrival. Bathed in red... still desperate for your scent, and words to describe it so. |
