Leaf Issue Two

 

places of childhood
still the same colour
of forget-me-nots

millions of stars -
a conversation with God
without words

Leaf Issue 2 

Red roses

no words for you -

the scent of red roses

from my hand




 

LEAF journal

 a signpost

lost in the mist

autumn’s last day


fresh bread -

from the old bakery

the smell of childhood

The morning jogging,

Through a flowering meadow,

Spring scent of her hair.

the morning silence filled with

 no lottery luck--

day after day

her love

A nightingale’s song

 alone in the dark--

a nightingale’s song
