River

Swarths of green patches
The gentle warm compress
Swirls in the moon's face
Smoke circles whispering in
Lavender kiss
Cold mint
Fireflies in the warm wind
Dry leaves
Soft crunch
Hula hoops
Saw her in my dreams too
Lavender haze
Cold hands
Dipped them in the water
It’s hard to understand
Felt a hand brush
Felt my heart race
My mind’s running but I’m still in place
Cold hands and warm heat
The distance between her and me
Cold hands dry in the warm wind
Saw the moon shiver
It's in the water still
