Pumpkin scented air
carries promise of candy...
On restless feet she wanders
through the garden of her life...
I’ll build a castle in the air
for you and me alone to share...
Innocence of form
belies the cimmerian shades...
Cobwebs glisten with dew
As morning sun wakes...
Becalmed atop a mirrored sea
the storm has passed...
She stands amid the chanting mass
crushed on all sides like a pebble between...
The ache never leaves,
a constant reminder...
Summer in a single bite
that lingers in the mouth...
The glint of gold amongst the green
a berry ripe with autumn’s sun...
The final word is written
My pen is dry of ink...
Even the clouds have ears
when she plays...
