Colorado, 1995

A Poem by RachelleB

 

Mountain day trips,
unique small towns,
central Denver,
the French café,
escargot, freakish storms,
art museums,
antique and thrift stores.
The driest of dry air;
for almost 5 years
this was our playground
extraordinaire.
 
Bubbles of moments,
few and so fluid;
was that happiness?
 
Another last move, again;
the new apartment,
cozy and upwards in rent.
 
Finally,
we were safe and relaxed.
 
The truth remained
unpacked in cartons
stacked neatly inside
our married heart,
hushed until novelties
wore down to forgotten
inevitabilities.

You are a fine poet, Rachelle. I love the mood in here as well. The flowed nicely. Loved the last stanza!!

Very nice--atmospheric, well-worded with what seems to be a less than happy end. You're a fine poet, RachaelB.
