Drops of his whimsy infused in my perfume fill the air I breathe in specks of his humour stored in my locket are the pulse in my skin precious flecks of his kindness stowed in my purse give my soul purchase these motes I carry when his lips I can't kiss & his hands, out of reach

Sunrise to sunset to moonlight's reset, a repeat of alighted feet retiring to more earthly bounds. Life was meant to be profound but falls flat to this and that to calamities of empty 'we's and miscontrued thoughts. Is this life as it ought be? Or were we meant to be more free?

It's a stunt kite You hold the strings Down the beach in a steady breeze I'll hold its frame until you're ready Until it's time I'll wait for the tension The tug And then the letting go Two strings in your hands Pull back to climb higher We'll touch the sun if you let it

back then, what I had in mind for the flush of middle age was a gradual ascent, a spiral climbed slow and steady, blooming in my prime, aloft in the clouds like a raptor, like an escaped balloon giddy on my own helium. what contingencies? down draft, pin prick... storm.

We meant to stay within reality's grip, but instead we flew far away from it up, up— high as we could like Icarus, risking the fall & the searing burns we found a new reality among the clouds, hiding out in our own dreams only later to admit our escape had always been deliberate.

We need elevating through these dark passages of time. I meant to visit you, but the moment passed by. Instead I felt the guilt, the meaning of my folly, wondering if I care for you less than my heart tells me.

As the wind sang loudly through shaded trees, we sat on a blanket a picnic at our feet he whispered words like poetry to my ears & his hands told a story my body strained to hear as the day turned to evening we dreamed time could freeze even as the minutes blew away on the breeze.

Rivulets pool in a rocky depression Once suspended drops then drips one. two. three. A waltz from one ledge to another Bouncing off the tender leaves That push upward with sunny optimism And let fall the anxious water Collected below Safe from the exuberant day

I’ve forgotten the words But the tune still plays in The back of my mind in Time with the leaves that Fall as I kick and spin Picking another handful to Throw to the air I forget When and where and What the words say, but The leaves still fall and The tune still plays

I am a pantser so I am constantly surprised by the words that want to be written. It is also why I love prompts particularly
#exphrasticvoices
images that triggers stories
#SenseWrds
because the words listed are to inspire not copy
#inkmine
because it offers a string of unrelated words to challenge

188 Musically Sheltering Elm Oh giving tree, What could you give to me? Shade to sit under me Coolness from the summer breeze And what if I should like to sing? Then take my branches and my trunk and make a guitar, give it strings, and hear what new songs it brings.

A the radio's cry, speaks right to my heart. A knowing in common, a chance to restart with this seed that dares grow all the way to the sky. As fate dares to beckon, I dare to reply.
