Notes About The Poem

isolation, longing are like safety porn
------------------------------------------------

The Grass Path

(a story in 4 Senryus)

Dew gently pools on
the rich green Bermuda blades
of suburban lawns.

Walking across grass
soaks your shoes like a splashing 
child in a puddle.

Your passage diagrammed, 
by wet, green tracks that trace your
path like virgin snow.

Proof you were here, real,
a charming gift watched through chaste
glass - that made me cry.

Anais, Very nice 5-7-5 walk where no breadcrumbs were harmed nor needed to find your way home. Blue Fescue FTW. -Richard
