  • A Sense of  Air

     

    Sniffing at a green honeydew melon votive

     

    The scent of sunny pink dahlias, in a well lit room

     

    The smokey smells of a campfire, at night

     

    In fog, above seasoned mossy ground.

     

     

    Crisp

    The wind goes into a dive

    And turns

    And climbs,

    And coasts high above

    The city lights

    Tonight.

  • Hello Mr. Turtle of the Sea.

    I’m not quite sure what the ‘votive’ of “melon votive” means, but for the rest, I like it. It takes a second read to really get at what you’re saying literally. And metaphorically, well, it’s always up for grabs isn’t it? ;D
