Granted

Fresh spring cut grass separates the toes,

A soft breeze guides the air,
Gently caressing her angelic hair,

Illuminated as if even the sun belonged to this divine presence, 

Captivating gazes to my core leaving me transparent,
Eternity skips ahead leaving me to recount my woes,


Cold wood shivers forgotten slippers,
Heavy sighs rejuvenate the stale ambiance,

Consumed by an expanding shadowed audience,
Evaluating my cracked soul for pleasure, 

Left to lose all composure, 

Even the sweetest can turn bitter.

TY, awe... i like the feel of your poem. i love the image of stepping on to fresh grass with barefoot. To come think of it, I'm intrigued by the way you describe this captivating canvas, and turning it to what is and will be... an amazing and unique style you have.. Not many can be so passionate with similes and metaphors.. xox~LINDA
