The wind whispers through the willows
branching willows, gracing the isle.
Islands of time, and northern thought
northern thinking wafting in the breeze.
Softly breeze by lit tallow tapers
tapering off my minds clean edge,
edging thoughts in soft willow glances
glancing through its cascading leaves.
Leaving much for me to contemplate,
contemplation of time and space
spacing together the imagery of willows
willow trees, junipers, and wild finches.
Golden finches gracing fading lights of summer
as summer gives way, to paths of autumn.

northern thinking intermingled with willows and finches - aren't these Yankee Candle Scents just so evocative? I could write something on each of these titles -

Poetic artistry of the quilled tip spill kind! This piece like many others by this author tends to take me away in Calgon moments journey like an invisable ghost following someones inner thoughts on a nature walk. Beautiful scribing.
