Strands of wheat fly
In the five o’clock breeze
Flecks of amber and emerald
Delight in nature’s orchestration
Even the sinking sun lingers
to bear witness…
Arm in arm we press forward
Faces flushed, hearts racing
Inside your pocket
Our fingers interlace
And your October smile
Gives autumn’s brilliance
A whole new light
It is here I revel
My path perfectly illuminated
Forever basking in your
Aura of gold

The winds of discord are warm, arid, and empty;
Like the vacancy of places long since abandoned where the only thing louder than the silence is the eerie rustling of things left unsettled…
Unlike the fresh cool breezes of spring or the invigorating first flurries of winter these tepid dusty winds offer no comfort as they fail to lift and carry away the heaviness on my heart.

Oh Southern crush name sake of my long ago distant past…
How many times must I kill you before you finally rest in peace?
Would that enlightenment comes to those who seek to resurrect you.
Forgive them for they know not what they do.
Or do they?
Sometimes people are intentionally cruel and willfully ignorant
and I have no use for either.
