Bless the broken road
I’ve found you after all these years
of wandering with bitter tears
that trickled down my hardened face
that softens now thanks to your grace.

Autumn’s bounty
She had on her the smell of ages
and a vivid passion that still rages.
She asked me for a harvest tryst
and it never occurred to me to resist.

Smelling of rain and fresh-cut flowers,
she was jovial and gaily attired
and I got so drunk upon her powers
that I can’t remember what transpired.

that I curled up at your feet and died.

and gaily wrapped but, alas,
it isn’t that kind of gift.
Unspoken
You could look for years for just the right way to say something not of words.
