Twisting In The Wind

 

A strange suspended time,

Like those little child moments

Between awake and asleep

Curled under the huge kitchen

Table, comforted and carried

By the velvet voices of

Mother and her sisters

Catching up on lost days,

Why does the Obama election

Have the world treading water,

Love affairs watching, wondering,

Full hearts aching to breaking

Like autumn leaves slowly

Twisting in the wind.
