That Night he pulls her closer
she looks around
aimless
|
LAST NIGHT figure eights
peering out
the flower petals
|
Better against his better judgment
in an autumn breeze
against her better judgment
|
Good Night light of the television
a house quiet
cold beds
|
Recalling the Kiss breeze blowing
in the pond
the captain's daughter
|
Rain, Rain rain pounds against
drowning in the
she snatches a
|
Refreshing clock strikes 5
we gather around
the light from the fire
|
Cracked sidewalk cracks
a poodle
a dogwood tree
|
SEARCHING dewy grass
chatty stars
trembling digits
|
Gushing Wind below the clouds
grabbing another
eyes to the sky
|
Away From Home car pulls up
packed like canned goods
sleepy eyes creep open
|
She Speaks eyes closed
blue birds dance
deep brown eyes
|
I Knew You creeping
have to get away
a standoff
|
Questions over the tall oaks
he follows
the glimpse of her
