December has
never been so cold
as the brief
days and
sparkling darkness
unite against
my sun-filled heart
darkening my mood
and demanding
too much of my soul
I wish I had lingered
longer
with Autumn
To: January24th
Oh you Autumn lass
how the lovely white
of fresh falling snow
can brighten a dreary
December day.
The cold crisp of
winters wind clears
the head for a moment
then memory goes retro
on me and I remember
the happy days of a new love
my love was my breath
and my food for the day
I danced on star spattered
patios alone with the
sweetness of him
left lingering in
my nostrils memory
a sort of homey armoma
clung to your clothes
with a hint of your soap
on your face
Those were the happy days
and now you are thousands
of miles from me and
your memory fades fast
on long dark nights in December.
