A weekend away
mapping our intersection
told in six haiku
Natural retreat
animal spirits refreshed
washed by the river
Chirping among trees
our thoughts flew like birds at dawn
in all directions
Your warmth like the sun
fish jumped from those mottled eyes
your smiles seemed like bait
Challenging questions
a gentle vivisection
my heart feels exposed
We built a campfire
flames danced on questions of would
embers like your cheeks
Now filled with new words
after our time together
your cat missed my tongue
