Fill my nose with the smell of cinnamon spice and nutmeg, While my feet crunch upon carefully laid stones. Here is where rest has found me, Draped with leaves of wisdom upon my brow. Let me lie under these golden bows, So I may be full, full of what can only be autumn joy. Before … Continue reading Wait A While- Michael Erickson

Criss Crossed- Michael Erickson
Criss crossed is the path with shade, Cooling me from this summer ease. I feel elation at the rising cold, As it burns out in the sunlight.
