Just a Blanket of Wild Violets

Just a Blanket of Wild Violets

I forget just how many times

we made out

beneath our favourite tree

with no one but

the birds, a few buzzing things

and the odd bunny

   watching over us for company ..

Indeed, it now seems

so very strange to think back

   on us like that ..

Like maybe, we never really

   played there at all ..

Since nothing marks the spot

nor the importance

   of such lost private moments ..

No trace of you or me

except perhaps for an incongruent

   blanket of wild violets ..

 

Author's Note

don't worry about it .. I'm used to it by now ..

Wonderful work and a beautiful memory. There are many places where I have memories that have no memory of me. You writing flows so easily and beautifully. So lovely

With love

The wild violets mark the spot. Planted firmly in your memory, not forgotten and now woven into a poem. Quite lovely Neville.
