Longing For You

Sunlight kissed the horizon; our young age, leaving dots and dashes upon our crisp page. Wild flower and Wonders, we both did grow; watching seasons change from spring to snow. Sunlight above and the noon overhead; teenage verbiage and words left unsaid. Wild flower and Wonders were left behind. Sometimes snowflakes choose simple design. Sunlight at five and silhouettes emerge; and words and meanings work to converge. Wild flower and Wonders, we slip into sleuth. Autumn overshadows the losses of youth. Sunlight gives way to the Wonders of moon. Wild flower whispers leave me longing for you.

A delightful poem, Rhoda! You make use of sunlight's position and wild flowers to find a way to our heart. A feeling of longing lingers on, as the final line fades into the night. ~ Regards // paul
