nekked

in #poetry6 years ago

Saw Anna Banana today

We studied each other’s eyes

She smiled.

Crow's feet
I remembered her running naked into the surf
of Wrightsville Beach
Getting ‘night nekked’ we called it

We cried
couldn’t help it

Cried for the day
when we were beautiful

Before babies who died
were born

Before secrets long-buried
were birthed

Before souls passed
a point
of no return.

Sort:  

Dónal’s back!

love it- I've got some things brewing

Looking forward to it! I too did a double take when I saw you in my feed. Glad you’re at least “checking in” with Steem again.
