Sun City - Poem #45
A Poem by toritto
In dreams
I walk in furrows
of deep crusted snow
with you
where once we walked
in slow motion Autumn
amongst nodding twigs and leaves of many colors
before we started Winter fires
loving; the flames turning crackling logs
into silent gray ash
sweeter than all the songs
ever sung
caring not if Spring
would ever come;
and yet it did
larkspur and cornflowers
Now I sit in the Summer sun alone
warm winds blowing from the sea;
no Autumn winds nor scent of larkspur;
no cornflowers comfort me.
