The Amphitheater
A golden dust pours over each breath that escapes their shallow lungs
Yellowed paper blossoms from their side satchel, for love they have brung
Etched onto cloudy guiding lines, they keep them there as a remainder of beauty.
Brown leather shoes tap the cement beneath their seated, breezy body
The gusts bring a deep purple, a thought that leave their eyes groggy
They exhale, leaving their overflowing cotton blouse spilling onto the moss
Soft orange paints their skin with a new hue
dancing upon pink lips and bright eyes
a mouse scampers by
leaving the mystery of life
as another contribution to their wandering mind.
And as they stretch their legs out in front
dotted socks emerge from beneath blue jeans to taste the world
a heron sips the sunset
a leaf falls to earth
a fish jumps in the distance.
