As yet untitled....


She holds light in hand,
Speaks in the secret language of raindrops,
Smiles a million thunderstorms
which washes my blues away..
She moves like midtowne taxi
erratically racing
a top paved emotions
oft stalling at red lights held
upright by cracked asphalt
and concrete tombs
disguised in my words.
I fall upon dead silence
a quickened sound of flash
'tween red and green
stuck somewhere cautiously
on the yellow
of her light.

What I especially like about your blog is that the pictures that you choose, always convey a little something extra within the original context of the poem. Basically providing a "face" to your "voice."
