Berrylicious!

A Bit Of Words

                       Berrylicious

 

Her name is a mnemonic device

Gripping recollections 

flood my mind

Her scent - her smile - oh her smile

Subtle and vibrant like an afternoon picnic

in the shade of a single redwood standing resolute in a crowded park 

 

Her voice like lovebirds 

increasing volume 

drowning out everything that is supposed to matter

 

She is what matters - 

her taste - refined elegance 

balanced to this modest palette 

 

Her passion volcanic 

Her humor good-natured yet darkly quirky and knowing 

 

Her eyes shine with wisdom and wit and mischief

 a poet's perspective tempered by practicality

and an artists deft hand ready to embrace the world 

Entrancing us all with a fingertip played

across the brim of a half-filled wineglass

Bold and delicate like well planned revolution

 

She is a moon orbiting my planet 

The gravity that keeps me grounded

 

Sewer of ideals - practitioner of kindness
Mysterious and complicated

in so many of the right ways

like an interstate to an unknown destination

A never-ending adventure you cant Wait to embark on

Reading this put me on a blanket under that redwood, looking through the eyes of the author. I could see with my mind's eye this magic, this girl, this ...awesome story.
