Faintest Scent Of Possibility Thunder defined the boundaries between Sullen cheek of stormy mayhem glistened Pulled collar, as intent blew the gray base low Dubious and derisive, A fist pound of bellowed sound lay Though disorder, to its compliment, made change Warily, to watch the mirage tempt form In some outmoded dawdle on a charcoal page Bending at the waist, I reached for chalk Patiently lessening, the darker hours attempted On a nebulous flight, morning came Ten toes poised upon the garden table With my hands behind my head And true enough spring began in earnest Opening, the peering buds in thirst to sip Perhaps it was inherited, that intensity to stare Or more so, courage to wait and see There was a second glance through fluttering lids The simmering smell of come summer And true enough…it did Copyright Kkh 6/15/06 |

nature certainly does it's own thing, and when we allow it just to be as it should, things seem all that more miraculous... wonderful poem |

“Dubious and derisive, A fist pound of bellowed sound lay Though disorder, to its compliment, made change” “And true enough…it did” TD: So many lines and verses to comment on. This is one of your best! Beautiful write. Vividly expressed as if to pull the reader right into the portrait you have painted here. What a beauty!! JL |
