Description now is
the quiet glow
of fireplace embers,
the whisper of leaves
beneath our shoes,
and trees that mimic
a sunset sky.

now is
a low ember
toasting the air
into earthtones
in this glorious burnt sienna
of our lives,

in the genesis of our autumn.

I remember you did a photo of this spot a while ago. I like the way you worked it up and as always I love the way you use words.

BitterGrapes In reply to SeductiveByatch [2007-09-18 14:21:45 +0000 UTC]

Yes I did, good observation - especially considering that it is the same spot but not the same stairs. These are on the side of where the other one was shot.

I have some more recent shots of that big hill. I've been taking a lot of pictures of that park because I knew I was moving away and there is a lot of sentimental value to that place. It's a huge park...5 blocks in any direction. I've lived one block away from it for 14 years.

The happy ending to this story is, the condo I just leased which is a mile away from where I am now...has a front door that basically steps out into this park!

Thanks for your encouragement, sweets.

True enough.
I'm still kind of melancholy about leaving the apt.

Of course you are, there are years of memories there and that is not something that should be put aside lightly.
