A Poem – Week Twelve

In my pre-food allergy days, I used to have a fascination with almond trees.  This poem, written in 1999, is about a crush I had.

 

Almond Tree Dreams

You appear in my dreams

In my fantasies

Before my eyes.

Occupying my day dreams

And the night ones too.

Coloring my imagination

Like never before.

The sunset over the evergreens

And crisp mountains

And the bright lights

Emblazoned in the warmth

Of a velvety sky.

As we lay, beneath the almond trees.
