time and once upon ago Euphrosyne’s amber tresses flowed on wisps of autumn’s frosted breath
dear Aglaia, the tall and slim in elegance, slow danced with wind cloud-kissed, her raiment golden flecked
and Thalia, sweet Thalia blushed bright her supple shallow roots held tight as fledglings flitted from their summer nests
yes time and once upon ago from seed to sprout these beauties showed resilience when the tempests raged they met each season shift with grace flowered, fruited, shed their seed the most magnificent of trees and lovely still, though worn with age if they could speak what might they say?
embrace each season of this life dwell on the good, let go the strife time steals away before you know so learn to bend when fierce winds blow let your roots spread deep and wide reach to heaven’s North Star guide then soft surrender to the loam leave not a trace, but grace, come home
in another lifetime I imagine we were friends lovers even how familiar your gaze felt in the back of my eyes something…you know? you know.
the fates have me engaged this incarnation with other concerns life, love, heartache, happiness…joy still hopelessly lost but for a serendipitous, ill-timed, breathtaking encounter on a street corner in the rain, in autumn a brief moment when our eyes met and held and I remembered… I remembered then you were gone

I spied a lovely doe today she held my gaze, then leapt away into the brush deep in the hollow I fought the urge to rush and follow to think I’m kind would not be safe we humans are a cruel race I kept my distance glad to see her intuition made her flee run free sweet forest sprite run free it’s best to fear the likes of me as hunters plan their autumn sacks be swift, stay safe, and don’t look back
