With inspiration comes haiku
Feeling of being
alone in a place lined with
sectioned window panes.
Woman walks across
with a book in her small hands
and sits close to me.
I cannot pretend
to be alone anymore
my breath isn't free.
She snaps a photo
in the dusk and dying light
could it be of me?
Air is crisp and still
sky is blue like winter ice
earth has brought autumn.
The woman has left
only the birds make light sound
cars rumble away.
I roll in the grass
in my mind's eye, giggling
what would it be like?
I get up and roll
I am cuddled by nature
the grass is so long.
Time to leave this place
I will visit again soon
to lay in calm peace.
