After the Fall

Rain- a welcome to hibernating skin . . a Southern accent can melt snow from the highest mountain in the wind, a voice carries, alone and waiting You could be secure in warmth yet, a chill invades and you allow its touch to take hold I am aware that you are capable of being the rush of freedom, as quivering lips thirst for adventure - frost has chosen its path As my entire being trembles, while feeling a liquid lullaby lingering lightly along the skin I realize in that moment, feeling is after the fall ____________________ ~ Just a little scribble ~

aye lass how long it's been... how I yearn for the comfort of a southern accent... so sweetly musical... warm and inviting... respectable charm... aye this cursed frost wrapped round me heart... weight of the world it is... seemingly... no escape... how I yearn for the freedom... of the southern accents laughter... once again...

Hi Brandy, this is one beautiful scribble Brandy. Your wonderful lines paint such vivid imagery, a living canvas in the mind. In a piece of so many beautiful lines, I wouldn't want to pick out a few as standouts, because the whole piece is a standout. A poetic gem, an excellent write. A Fave. Have a wonderful weekend. Hugs....Mike. XX
