My favorite hour arrives
Too quickly
Today,
A drive, required,
I need to see
You.
Same car,
Same old highway,
Same steady heartbeat
Purring, excitedly.
I’ve chosen the view,
A spot alongside
Road X,
Wishing to beat you there
My heal digs, as my toes
Push down, steadily,
A muscle in my thigh
Tightens
While pulling to the left,
I roll to a stop. I see you.
Longing for an embrace,
Wishing you did too,
I sit, upon this car hood,
And wait.
There’s never enough
Time
To watch you, my day,
Fall
Into twilight,
As if just for me.
Looking future, thinking hope, and embracing the beauty now – that’s living. Ah, breathe deeply. So well written, Audrey.

I think I’ve seen that place — ’tis the Midwest, for sure! Beautiful, though part of me is wishing for some water and sunshine right about now!

The Midwest and probably every road within it. Thank you, Debbie. You need to fulfill that beach and water desire. Hope you do..
