winter leaves slowly sometimes

     oh you forget. you forget because winter seeps so slowly back
     into itself so high up there on the deserted mountain plain.
     you forget that equinox. of the explosion spring can be.
     of mud, and slogging, of giddy children drunk on the blooms
of the tree tops and sparkling nights. oh you forget.
oh you forget, because winter seeps so slowly back
into itself so high up there on the deserted mountain plain.

remember too, it is beautiful because it is your own. 
happy day.

  1. Your writing just stops me...sometimes I have to reread your posts because the words are so beautiful and I think to myself, "yes, this is exactly what I feel too." You have a tremendous gift.

    1. Thanks so so much Rachel. It is so very addicting, taking photo, after photo, after photo of these flowers of spring.
      petals haunt my footsteps these days, littering my dreams, blotting out Winter & her bare boned weight.
