Tick tock, tick tock
the clock on the wall never stops.
Time marches into tomorrow
regardless of whether I can
keep up with it or, not.
Home is where the heart is
I wish you could know
how those words fall
like heaven in my hurricane.
They are each a ryhthm of tides
to quell passion’s endless quest
searching for fulfillment.
In Autumn’s first fresh kiss
I feel you arrive
touch my cheek with cool fingertips
as I’m re-living the melancholy in
kaleidoscopic colour.
Through new seasons of love
in other circles of light
I pay yet more heed to your
string of endless whispers.

Lovely.
Beautiful. Vivid. You breathed life into a season and it came alive.

Endless whispers should indeed echo through time. A lovely write.
I’m re-living the melancholy in
kaleidoscopic colour.
beautiful in the sadness…
This is so beautifully written and the artwork is breathtaking. I love the fourth stanza 🙂
These lines express so much. Very nice feel to this image.
“I wish you could know
how those words fall
like heaven in my hurricane”
Aah.. dreamy, creamy, and filled with such lovely rich scents… and the onset of Autumn gives the poem an entire new level of awesomeness and romanticism!
… new seasons of love … yes, Bren … for you and everyone … even me … the most timid lover there is … Always, cat.
I love art and love to paint. this is such a lovely piece and the art goes with it so well

That’s extraordinarily beautiful.

Enjoyed this very much. I really love the following two stanzas, just the sense within a bit of contrast and an understanding. Excellent write

what a rich, heartfelt piece, and i love the art, too. i obsess over art for my pieces in fact, and i love this autumn image, and loved it more after reading the words you married to it.
Love is a drug and you have certainly captured her craving beautifully, well complemented by the halcyon image you have used.
I, like many others who have commented, love the line “In Autumn’s first fresh kiss.” The whole poem is lovely, but these particular words stand out. Thanks for sharing and for visiting my blog!
In Autumn’s first fresh kiss
I feel you arrive
touch my cheek with cool fingertips
as I’m re-living the melancholy in
kaleidoscopic colour.
Wow….. I love the season changes, especially fall. And it does, it brings so many beautiful memories every year to me….. This is lovely….
“I wish you could know
how those words fall
like heaven in my hurricane.” Love the power of this line!

We got to feel autumn’s first kiss last night, and it’s like I’ve been waiting for it all my life. Yes feels like 47 years waiting for a kiss. And worth all those 105 F degree weeks in a row!

“Home is where the heart is…”
These words really do quell the search for fulfilment. Really loved this.
This is beautiful, and haunting. “In Autumn’s first fresh kiss I feel you arrive.” Just lovely. I most love the final stanza. So poignant a poem!
Aww that was beautiful and I loved the picture you used too. Really brings it alive
“kaleidoscopic colour” really brings autumn out that much more, great line.
Oh and you can stop the tick tocking on the wall. Take a hammer and beat the clock in. At least you can pretend it stopped for a while..haha
