Spring Season in Ithaca, NY:

A Poem by Gabriella DeGennaro

Spring Season in Ithaca, NY:

 

 

The other day whilst walking through

the woods,

the stream,

the broken rocks,

I paused-

to watch a leaf

dip in the breeze

with each breath of air.

 

I looked off

into the sun,

and down

at my dirty shoes,

and remembered

your promises.

 

I'll take you hiking when the weather gets warm.

I'll take you to the sitting bench in the shallow stream.

I'll take you to the gorges so that we can jump together.

I'll take you to the trees perfect for climbing.

I'll take you on adventures.

 

 

I walked the rest of the way back

with those thoughts

expanding in my head,

and your ghost

possessing my soul.
