Waiting for Summer

...

By T. LichtPublished about a year ago 1 min read

Watch a wild flower wilt away...

Luster proud petals now parched peeling paint.

Stalks, stooping, sweeping stiffened grass

Hungry for a breath of warmth, a touch of summer.

I too, a bit of revival, a touch of softening on this cold, cold day

Of wilted, parched lips, skin- peeling paint and heart waiting for summer...

sad poetry

    This is such a lovely little piece—wildflowers and hearts both just waiting for a bit of summer magic. The imagery hits just right—parched, peeling, and hopeful all at once. You captured that cold-day longing so beautifully!😊
