Memories Flooding Back
smell of rain
the senses
flooded
cool breeze
over the meadow
I stare
over the rolling hills
whishing
the sound
of sleigh bells
his shadow
cast down—
moonlight
storybook
images of fantasy
•
shining knight
he faces
the dragon
locked in the tower
his prize
green ivy
rises
to the sky
the bird song
floating in the air
warm breeze
arrival of
puffy clouds
split in two
lightning strikes
•
in the eye of the storm
swirling clouds
moonlight
the rhythmic bobbing
of the buoy
my prize
came with a fight
fish fry
on the shore
we cast our lines
warn fishing pole
memories flooding back
falling blossoms
black and white photo
covered in dust
•
the ground shakes
the rust off
old engine chugging
summer sun
the basking serpent
the half eaten fruit
discarded
past mistakes
the rotten stench
attracts flies
the body
rises from the ditch
cherry blossoms
clouded night
robbers in a grave
•
crystal gems
golden doubloons
X marks the spot
winter storm
sinks the wooden ship
the iceburg
strikes
she holds on
his loving sacrifice
she hogs the plank
in the darkness
the party searches
dimming moonlight
razor cold wind
mountains peak
•
tiniest movement
does not go unseen
the soaring eagle
in the woods
they walk together
get inside
the circle
seabear attack
a perfect circle
dreaming in geometry
outside the window
freedom awaits
cherry blossoms
country trail
to the bright future
