Never Forgotten

Cottonwood snowcaps blowing in the breeze
fluffs of white flutter, filling a distant history
closed eyes filter out tiny drops of salted sea

Time, lost along with another passing season
misted moments mixed with lavender essence
dropped down in a canyon of heartfelt misery

A fervent haze rises across the baked horizon 
burning deep visions of succulent lips waiting
on honey dipped words to melt frozen moments 

-never forgotten
