chasing your dreams
flat on the earth
repose.

off center
dead on track
through the haze
i saw.

who, however you speak
when i reflect
on the gaze
of your aqua
all sense of time suspends.

funny how distance
makes the heart
grow fonder and colder.

outstretched
worn, tired
warm.

i know
only i know.

little pretty flowers
tossed away.
