A Bright Clearing I AM.

There are worn-out circular paths around that bush. I can't help it... venturing off has always been my nature.

After 22.


 That first kiss tasted

Like wide-eyed surprise

Like sun-warmed musk and the utter fear

Of being discovered... as Romeo and Juliet's Theme

Rose and soared in your ears


How fleeting 

And unimportant that memory feels now

Like a floating feather

Pushed down from the sky

By a sudden downpour


Now, 

Under a puddle of mud

It swims
