wary of pavement,
of rapid movement
&
gushing laughter.
was it life thereafter?
a thick embellished,
bejeweled nostalgia.
a cinnamon laden
turquoise haven.
we grew into willows
to feel the winds billow.
outstretched and groaning
we found our glory.
in cumin and cardamom
drenched and slurried.
– Sheila Sea
delicious & sensual

Melancholy, yet beautiful
like Loren Eiseley,
like the setting sun.
The sun sets, it’s true
the day closes, finally
and darkness comes
until tomorrow
