Homecoming

Posted on March 27, 2017 by Raivenne

It’s been
months
since his last touch,
she stews
in sweet memory
As each new
sunshine
adds more
to long for

Winter’s
white velvety cloak
finally yields
to red balloons
smoked meats,
and opening of casks
upon first sighting
in the Foothills

Welcome Home

I liked the phrase about stewing in memory and how winter’s white yielded to red balloons.

Paints a picture of something old and ancient for me…Celtic warriors returning from Winters away perhaps.

Lovely rhythm and flow here 😀 especially love; “she stews in sweet memory as each new sunshine
adds more to long for Winter’s white velvety cloak” ❤️

I specially like the use of “stews” in; she stews
in sweet memory
