Down a Worn Path

Grown old, I think of her less often now,

But always when walking here at the edge

Of winter, fading light of first bright days.

 

She is that faint shimmering above a sun-

Warmed stone at the edge of the stream,

Staying and going into the cold night air.

Almost Frost-like, this piece. I wrote once, "perception dithers at a span of years". I know you have this sense also, CF.

Age and thinking, revisiting that mindset, love gone, I suspect too soon, it's all here and I love it.
