In That Clasp of Silence

I slither through the deep forest across a mystical scene collecting remains from last evening’s venture : a shiny ligure, china teapot, faded locket, and scraps of letters on a trail of past impressions. By now, periscope of dawn’s glitter enlarges its serene movements as light’s thick veil blinds my vision on a quadrivial of glossed field ,encircling my reality fragile and calm amidst balmy scent of air entering my veins in gradual awareness. In that clasp of silence purely unbelievable reservoir of breath refills tired bosoms; and the forest stands still in its auburn robe waiting for clouds to form pathways before the sun returns me back home.
