Ninexeleven

A sunny autumn day my blanket beneath me over gardens grass wine and cheese a framed photo flowers gently sway in the wind unescorted I sit in quiet contemplation beauty is a deception me and my shadow know by sleepless nights eyes downward staring at nothing for nothing is all I possess my treasure buried on another sunny autumn day

Aurore, this is delicate, melancholy, and beautiful all wrapped together. Your powerful word pairs "framed photo", "sleepless nights" and "treasure buried" are all powerful in their distilled meaning. Wonderful writing. Thank you for reaching out to comment at my poem, so nice to meet you at Soup today. Warm wishes ~ John

Dear Aurora, the sorrow of lost love is expressed with a beauty that is deep and rich yet subtle in its tender artistry. A moving piece that allows the feelings to seep deeply into ones’s heart. Wonderful use of emotional imagery and poetic skill. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan
