A Poem I called Romance.


We gathered flowers from the garden
That stretched along the road
 A Mist breathed ethers of love
And in it's vapors we flowed
We picked and plucked the wild scents
Saw silver beads trapped inside a net
That spiders spun in Summer
But caught only now the wet, 
Wet mist, from clean air drunk
As we laughed and talked 
'til talk was sunk
In songs and dancing smiles.

The flowers we placed inside a jar
But somehow were not the same
Lost from those Kerry hills
Looked tethered now and tame
But still they hold a memory
Of a day when rain was a dance
Or a passionate poem
That was sent to me
A poem I called 
Romance.
