wait ‘n see hangs in thick air over bayou sliver moon hides herself behind shakin’ leaves loblolly pines peek at silent house ouaouaron makes big croak tellin' tales herb saint day lilies give up secret scent bayou knows what happens tonight charcoal man slides long legs from dream sheets eyes drink of lady shadow hair sleepin' on pillow half moon fingers folded under silk cheek feel of soft shoulders under his arm already missed charcoal man looks where p'tit boug sleeps run and play tucked away for night little feet ready to leave bed soon as sunpeek t'char mon fils charcoal man tastes words on tongue my son folds wilted calypso blossom into small brown hand all I got mon fils charcoal man takes Panama from nail slips screen door open easy like slides polished feet off porch lady stirs dream smells cigar shadow hair spreads lookin’ for her man p'tit boug crushes calypso in fingers pitches aroma too old ouaouaron quiet herb saint day lilies pull back scent bayou listenin’ to gone |

I find I sit for several minutes after I read these.. absorbing the story and not wanting them to ever end. Wish I could write like this, seemingly effortlessly. Autumn, the year's last loveliest smile~ |
