Loved this one Elan. For you, my own inadequate comments on an “ugly fall”, written while living in Kentucky: “Every now and then the wind brings to the Daniel Boonery – the patch of remnant forest that guards the hill – a foretaste of what’s to come and its trees respond with a collective shudder, shedding worn fragments of summer’s glory in showers of brown and ochre, grave clothes for the butterflies that just a few short weeks ago danced in their hundreds over our hillside medder.”
Your poetry speaks a language all its own. Your images lead me to see ordinary things in a different way. Prose just doesn’t do it to say how much I enjoy reading your blog so I have nominated you for the Creative Blogger Award. See below:
This is absolutely superb. I’ve read it again and again… wonderful words, intense imagery, visceral visions. Can’t click like often enough for this one.
Tasty & So very sweet!
Also, thanks for visiting my blog and liking “My Mountain of Imagination” post. I really appreciate it.

I too especially liked these lines: I stepped cautiously
Hearing you beneath
My shoe, upon your spine

Fall fell, hurt its knee
From golden leaves made plasters
Fast it was to heal
