as stood upon the river's edge and frost
delighted to see the end of what oftentimes
was seen as fragrant and free in the fraying gentle
evening of darkly lit passage along cobble and rock
through tired gazing and misleading
advances staring from the corners of smoke
and mirroring stanzas stands the running wild
as faltering sky on the hill and mote
the altogether reminder of yellow stained
flowers on pages of unwound thoughts
and dreams not fountained by youth nor sorrow
left searching for answers to an evening's
quarry and tools to fix the broken heart of morning
delighted to see the end of what oftentimes
was seen as fragrant and free in the fraying gentle
evening of darkly lit passage along cobble and rock
through tired gazing and misleading
advances staring from the corners of smoke
and mirroring stanzas stands the running wild
as faltering sky on the hill and mote
the altogether reminder of yellow stained
flowers on pages of unwound thoughts
and dreams not fountained by youth nor sorrow
