Rustic Love Poem by Almedia Knight-Oliver
Rustic Love
We sat on the creaky porch- as
Twilight replaced daylight-
Watching the sun warm down in its
slide into the colorful shades of the West.
Tomorrow will be a day of awakening.
It seems everything fades away-
Though, not where we sit,
We are still here as things are out there, too
The chirping sounds of crickets
The scent of a summer roses…
Even mama’s pork smoking in the house
Your arms gently circled my waist
The click of our first kiss, choking.
Hearts quivering like that
Of a captive chick (heart)
Feeling a rush of wild wind-
Untamed affection not reserved
This moment-
Illusion of greenness
Explosion of age…

It is a delightful romantic poem Almedia. You have used senses of smell, scent and sound to create a gorgeous setting. I love the last two lines 'illusion of greenness and 'explosion of age'. 10 Karin Anderson
