Lover’s Legacy I bury my face in your shirt Smelling your cologne Still lingering on the fabric Laundered clean since then Yet you are there touching my senses The ritual almost tantric Coffee brewing in the pot Kitchen filled with a glorious aroma Morning smells familiar of you Fresh baked bread and soft butter RosesContinue reading “Lover’s Legacy”

I am a Rock
I am a Rock This small round stone Has warmed in my hand It is smooth and colorful From where did it come? Perhaps the hinterland How did it get here? Who has held too?
