~Peonies~

 It was

An Autumn moon

The truest blue

Makes me

Miss you


Peonies

A hot cup of tea

A warm hug

Like the sweetest

Of ribbons

That’s for me

The key

To happiness

Is a breath 

Of air 

Alone


Twilight starts

A prelude 

To the moon’s comfort

You miss the light 

In hindsight

My secrets

Come out

Like water

Like the finest wine


Rain clatters

On the backyard window

Like soft glass

There are 

No highs

Without lows

Isn’t that

A gas?


Quiet willows 

Brush the

Cold glass

Like hushed laughter

Across honey,

Marmalade skies
