Essences





Shades of green of gold of blue
Nuanced within my mind
As memories often will do

Feelings of profound surprise
First time first love first look
Into a loved ones very eyes

The essence of a soul so soft
It can buoy a heartbeat
To such a clamor aloft

All it takes is a song a scent a touch
Yeets one back in time in an instant
To one once loved so much

The loved one is gone is missed is still there
In the place carved out just for them
Gone from this life still is everywhere

An intricate balance of here of gone away
Eye catching ear catching a scent or sound
In an audio pareidolia attention grabbing way

Imagination can run loose for a while
Until it becomes crystal clear
Then brings forth such a sheepish smile

Is it real was it real for others to hear to see
Then comes the touchdown back to earth
Imagining was only running away with me
