~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shy clouds drift over a sea of blue satin,
Remembering to breath in the used to be soothing
Sunlight gentling the truth, kindling hopes
Who reflect on the new,
Listening to aching raindrops, glistening
And bursting through the promises
On a still, clear afternoon,
While endless notes of light,
Fall like heady bliss, on the moments
When birds test their voices,
Crooning, lyrics like the wind’s breath
Pouring over the heart,
Lighting the thoughts with powerful images,
Blessing away the doubts, the dread,
Feelings unfolding inside the soul who has bled
Grieving for summer, who has gone out of my head,
As autumn sinks in around my life,
Crispy and quiet, like the leaves who dance,
Remembering, reflecting, resenting
the past’s lavender kisses, with all its plummeting wishes.
