definitions

ehh so, like most things, they still need a little fine tuning... they're from a while ago, early this month i suppose. and i did take a little poetic license with some the facts/timing...er...

. . . . .

definition of poetry

it has to be done spontaneously:
open the sliding door,
leave my socks on the porch,
jump the railing,
and when my feet touch the ground,
i know i'm home.--
the ground slowly turns my feet numb,
wind breathing against the backs of my arms.
i curtsy to the sun as dusk sets,
shadows creeping more softly than i can over the hills.--
on the first warm day since october,
finding wildflowers thn i didn't expect to see
for another three weeks,
returning home with that fleeting sensation
that will be gone
by the time
that the mud dries on my feet...

. . . . .

(the definition of love)

if you can catch the time just right
there's a certain quality
in the slant of the sun
that looks like
the definition of love
