Komorebi

Rays of sunlight combing through
the branches, a kiss of warmth
eroding this darkness. Her flock
of hair flowing, surrounding my
fingers; misty air, her breath
teases my skin; a chilly blowing.

Time stood still, icy stalking.
Her voice rides the wind, an echo 
talking and bouncing in my head.
Stunning beauty floating on
butterfly wings, a fluttering
elegance around me.

Her image, forever etched in memory.
Continuing to walk - lost in the
woods of frozen time; my ally.
I smile endlessly soaking her in.
