A Love Nostalgia Epilogue

Written: May 2nd, 2024

                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Quixotic quest quiddity
As dusk sapidity emerges, 
Casting a shadow 
Weeping waves smash 
in foamy scatters; 
seraphic strophic sojourn 
groans in a gossamer gaunt
Arid shadows fade. 
In a hazy blur, 
emptiness lingers. 
Shorebirds console each other. 
in epicedes of 
velvety whispers 
and elusive sighs. 
Horizon amid 
cinereous graffiti of 
tear-stained threnody and 
raven blooms.  
 
It breaks my heart, too
with crimson, auric, and 
plum, plum, purple wings, 
why haven't you 
returned 
to me in spring? 
to our moon-smeared love
& diaphanous elixir
amethyst kisses of 
emerald ablaze,
spiraling in seductive 
sapphire scarlet sounds,
Your love, a fiery flow
Flames aflame, 
with gemstones aglow.

Dark ideas settle in
my head is akin to 
a tombstone,  
Obstructing—my judgment
early hours are lost
in the fog, 
their significance dimmed
I succumb to allure
of nightfall and 
I shut my eyes. 
Acquiesce to inquiry 
in heaven, each flower
boasts a mirror
to inveigle into each valley,  
Beneath a sky of 
countless clouds;
quaint lodge stands out, 
surrounded 
by a myriad of 
shimmering ponds 
capture a vast expanse 
of coastlines.
Uncharted shores, 
where vessels veered
toward vast seas, 
untrodden by any praxis   
 
As twilight falls,
coastlines curve in a crescendo
across horizon.
Cloaking hill peaks in mist.
loquacious verbosity
recognized in wisdom 
beyond spectrum of 
circumlocution.
In a flurry of 
fading flowers,
faith-filled fields, &
fugacious felicity. 
Snare drum rotunda 
somberly chimes
within a forest, 
Its dulcet echos rhyme.   
 
We've wandered down 
curious trails
basking in the sun 
warm embrace; 
In depths of shadows, 
We've sought with fear, 
an ambient arena,  
vast and near. 
Unveiling a shore infinite, 
In an abyss where 
every heart resides.
With its boundless skies
