Kindergarten

I have seen shades of Eden

in your eyes.

Watched them slowly

fall away.

I have glimpsed a bitter smile.

As a new light dawns

and felt the tremble

of growing

apprehension.

Read this some time

when I have faded

abstract pieces of the heart.

and wander in the garden there.

The fruit is heavy and sweet.

"...abstract pieces of the heart..."  I have been running into a lot of lines recently that describe what we make and leave. Well penned this! Memorably lovely.  ~ allets ~

I wonder at the way we are

I wonder at the way we are connected. I hope for the future the one I'll never see.
