No greetings uttered
No faces remembered

Smell of cologne
Strong, Manly
Yet sweet, loving
Memories, scents
Priceless.
Worth a thousand words

she sits in wait.
The long, sleek tail
winding and twisting,
off the end
of her seat.
Her head rocks
to and fro watching . . .

Frozen breath escapes
through my indigo
lips. I pull
my pullover closer
to my neck. Leaves
march beside me

On thy cold gray stones, O Sea!
And I would that my tongue could utter
The thoughts . . .
