Weak Spots Vii

Waking up to a blazing idea As it takes off on the page like magic, And when doubt spreads its fire, Their smile is there to extinguish it  Falling into pages and pages Of breathtaking philosophies And haunting stories—flurried in fiction— With no one to call you to earth Solitude in the vastness of time's motion, The caress of the pages to the fingertips The ancient scent of the old book wafting In every page flip The leaves dancing in the movement Of the world in glowing beams, A breeze that reminds you that wind Exists—just as love exists 2.7.2020 Note: Thank you sincerely from my heart for taking the time to read these. I hope you like this one and that you are enjoying the Weak Spots February series.
