Tell Me

Does the wind blow the same color
on your side of life?
Perhaps Eastcoast dialect carries an undercurrent
I just don’t get.
What’s truth for me
    may mean naught to you.
Your trees turn brilliant leaves in Fall
    while my catus flowers softly white and peach
both fit for the eye delicious
    whatever the climate.
Stand before these bright eyes green
    and tell me again what you said before
and let me watch yours.
"Friend."
