Flying sparks I miss.
First peach,
First breath,
First kiss.
Hot rod to the touch,
burnt my hand on such.
It told me how I’ll hurt,
the crumbled ash on dirt.
Church chime fades into the rum.
Routine comes and up leaves fun.
Leftovers smelling better than,
The actual bite so dry and bland.
'Cuase you can’t force connection plans,
When here are two with slipping hands.
Burnt up in racing memory,
But stuck in dreams of all could be.

Got overtly creative with this one... might have lost cohesive meaning in the process. 😅
All things are not what they seem. A lovely write.
Dear, martini,
The aftertaste is what lingers more so than the original offering, be it good or bad it's what we remember most. I love the poem in its completeness but espically: 'Church chimes fade into rum' - that, I can relate to. Excellent!
Wishing you much happiness,
Tony.
