Passion pours forth Destined in a burst of harmony Timidly at first, struggling to balance On tip toes from the limbs of trees Yet over time, turning broad and supple Bathing in the sunlight, whispering to the moonlight Dancing in the rain As summer ends in certain vibrancy A last and final day remains un-named When the wind takes count and scatters passive souls Hardly leaving an impression on the sky Yet wrapped in thoughts of you I venture to your meadow Intrepidly the blade, though I know how deep the cut…how deep the ache Letting entrance to my secret garden, where the clothes of proper fall the path Returning to authentic selves, rubbed in berry juice still wet with promise Daisy chains around my waist to shade me from the burn of nakedness And for a time, just yours and mine… our hearts hear the tears For autumn is eternal, the dance of changes smug upon the flame And clover beds our love in images of tranquil days in distant wane That what you may forget, these crimson lips have kept Awakening your call, the spring before the fall, and given as my all Your whisper guides the blush of ivory dreams Copyright Kkh 02/27/05 |

What gives? The weather, the heat of a small but warm fire...a bottle of vintage wine, now down to it's last drop. Perhaps the mail man in his finest togs...?????????? Well? Sending two fire extinguishers, a ladder truck and the Sheriff's department..... Charge of indecent exposure and starting a fire that will become out of control.. |

Yet wrapped in thoughts of you I venture to your meadow Intrepidly the blade, though I know how deep the cut…how deep the ache Letting entrance to my secret garden, where the clothes of proper fall the path this was amazingly hypnotic and seductive, what I mean to say is...it blends the all of whats meek and right into something beyond comprehension...loved this...well done |

There is never a time I visit your post without word play. The sounds you string impel me to repeat them aloud. Today's favorite: "the dance of changes smug upon the flame" miscellanea |

For autumn is eternal, the dance of changes smug upon the flame And clover beds our love in images of tranquil days in distant wane Dear Kathleen, your poetry gladdens me and so often leaves me on the verge of tears. It is a heartfelt combination, the emotions you bring to the surface. Just lovely, you~ |
