Red Dress

Walking lonely ,

London, coldness covering , filling me

rain drops  falling ,

caressing  my face 

cooling a bit  of  its fire

  cooling a lot of its  desire



dry, dead leaves

kept falling onto  my toes,

without too much noise

just, like my days

that kept falling too



I took a leaf from the ground



touched it gently ,

held it tight

  put it back  in my coat's pocket







I Will not let my days slip from my hands  like dry  leaves



I entered  A shop

where Evening gowns, dresses filling the  whole place

I choose

red Dress , ,Boots and

Fur

Its Christmas ,and

I will celebrate it

  in my new Red Dress

    Nice poem captures the feelings and essence of the season. I especially like that first verse with the "rain drops falling
    caressing my face cooling a bit of its fire some of its desire" which I thought was exceptionally descriptive and vivid.
    Excellent job.

    Holy Moly sis...this color combo challenges these poor
    old eyes...lol...but anywho...

    Love the picture it paints. We are lucky in a way for
    all the leaves fall almost at once on the tree but
    our drift more slowly away, even tho they do go way to
    fast for me.
    I loved the picking up leaf part, for it is symbolic of
    keeping a memory and memories are all we really have in
    the end aren't they...

    Hugs...Eddy
