through the window to my mind






rain so fine it looks like a mist
touching the rooftops very tips
tires slicing through waters spray
cloaked huddled figures hurrying their way
out of the damp to warmth and lights
wrapping their hands around mocca delights
an eerily quiet neighbourhood
setting a soothing comforting mood
draws me to flickering orange and reds
snuggling close to a body sans threads
shadows dancing on wall a dance
enraptures the soul, the mind in a trance
wellbeing oozing out of my skin
in the arms of my love i’m wrapped within...

  2. Good morning Shadow,
    "close to a body sans threads" - I just love it. Poetry is such a feeling and thought precise language.

    "damp to warmth and lights" - your turn of phrases so often reminds me of a few I have turned from time to time.
