Never shared a poem before eek

~~~~
Your rolling gait is not awkward
Back straight
as the blackboard
legs moving in synch.
They make a rhythm
like my heart
when I see you.

The ravens watch with me
from the voyeur's tower
we watch alone here, together.
As you walk

I admire the ebony of your coat
against the vacuous face of winter
the contrast reminds me of love.

Slowly now, each alternate step
deliberate and perfect
almost to dignify, yet
your head is bowed
your eyes averted to the ground
you watch the frail snowflakes fall

without sound
to break your pensive mood
they land on your black, black shoe

It is the ache of thought, I know.
I almost know you.

You always walk alone.
~~

Hey Scorpbaby ~ you really captured a moment's imagery there.
quote:
..each alternate step
deliberate and perfect
almost to dignify,..

It's those little things we all notice and record mentally.

quote:
..without sound
to break your pensive mood
they land on your black, black shoe..

I love the word 'pensive'.. I'm so glad I have beautiful fresh poetry to read here when I visit!

You should share more often hon Hopefully be back soon, gotta get back to office stuff right now.

Thanks~Your opinions mean a lot to me!
I'll try to come up with more stuff. I'm taking mostly Literature courses at my University right now so I feel even more inspired to write. But unfortunately I'm my own worst critic and rarely like anything I write for more than a day!
