Better for Seeing

sylviasearcher

 

A stream of consciousness evaporated into the dizzy heights of my lapis lazuli
As the autumn winds fingered their way through the last golden leaves
It whispered a rustling across my mouth
I tasted glory and knew I was me


This is Now
And
This is Now
Like a dead poet told us
With the bray of her heart
I am here
With the Autumn
Okay
And apart

 

The lanes were carpeted with golden crunch and mud
Like a sensory delight to lead me to knowing
I sunk and I lingered and rose my eyes to the blue
I swear that I flew right into the showing

 

That was then
And
This is Now
Like the breath of a poet
Exhaling her being
I’m still here
With the Autumn
And better
For seeing

        Thanks Neville, it was a moment that I needed to capture, though not sure I did it justice...

        Hope you are safe and well too.
