~Lavender tree~

  ~Lavender Tree, Hill Station in India~

at the highest point

of the hill

the trembling touch

of velvet peaches

tinted green

and pale brown

light

It was the only tree at that spot

I was staring down

after you

both lonely

me and a tree

of flowers

only tree there

beautiful and lonely

I miss you already

I have kept your secrets

when you asked

I was there

tentative touch

of a forgotten memory

fragile and soft

if you’re heart

sets out

to do good things

thing’s will only

get better

a rough draft

with so much

potential

to shape

my mood

~Spring~

the magnolia trees

bloomed today

my favorite thing

to pass by

to start my day

lilies and gardenias

a tilting shell

the tentative touch

of wine velvet

honey

against fingers

like 

a forgotten memory

a storm’s coming

the air always smells so fresh

before a storm

~Lit~

I’m just laying

here

watching the clocks

pass by

hoping

for something

to drive me

the good kind of crazy

again

to feel

the wind

in my hair again

the first crystal

two paths

of different light

bounce

against the

shadowed walls

my mood

matched

the red

lit sunset

someone

put a match to

hug me

with the lit curve

of the moon
