Elicit Thoughts
as i sit here
my thoughts thunder
in with the eventide
the orb of night
lights a path
as i walk along
i watch my shadow dance
tree limbs reach towards me
i can almost feel your hands
touching me
tonight's air is warm
like your breath
as it falls against me
i hear the ebb
of your breathing
mingled within
this slight breeze
and i wish you here
fireflies flicker
like stars and your eyes
and i become lost again
deep in my thoughts
the aroma of summertide lingers
through the garden,
i reach for a flower
its petal is moist and soft
like a brush from your lips
i can't help long for you
as the iris closes its petals
and surrenders to night
