in the past i had scattered all the feelings that came out of us two meeting into the brisk air and like fallen leaves on the ground, they decorated my walk.
i hid my dreams among the trees
which danced in delight
for what i had allowed to grow inside of me.
revisiting this place with you was the universe's gift and i cherish it.
hoping
to
climb
the
stairs
that
would
lead
me
closer
to
you.
wishing
to
make
the
right
turn
that
would
lead
me
to
a
kiss.
dreaming of the bench that would forever be blessed in holding both our hearts so close.
taking in the colors and absorbing the peace.
this day held so much possibility but i was just happy that i got to be here with you in this place that knew the beginning of our story and knows by our visit that it's still going.

The words weave wonderfully delicate stories of love around the beautiful pictures making them so alive!
:))
YES!! Clever girl. You did a great job of tying the pictures to your journey. I especially like the metaphors, puns and "turns" that you take along the way. It's thrilling and full of suspense.
What gorgeous photos! For a gal who lives in a city without seasons, they make me homesick for the town I grew up in that did change colors.
I love the 3rd photo from the bottom. That walkway is so enticing as well as your words. :)
Your poem and this place is so beautiful!
Wonderful journey through the walk of emotions and visuality. They're woven seemlessly, and that walkway looks so inviting yet secret.
I do share your longing in every word you wrote, in every breathtaking picture you took.
The changing colors of the trees reminds me of the poem:
"love is like a bruise;
first a dashing periwinkle
then a sullen lime-green
then a hangdog sort of ochre
until it fades with age
you and I, how will it end -
wounds without poultice
questions without answers
just canvassing on:
the rumor of colors"
