POEM

LEFT BANK How I loved the Rive Gauche; avant garde, pleasantly posh yet, all is past now, vanished, left to wander in the circles of stray memories floating in my mind.

SOLSTICE Primal feelings, heathen, savage, raw, yet tender, stir deep my soul as pagan worlds collide calling me to call to you on this sacred day most dear; glow warm, Summer Solstice, seductive Midsummer sun. Having a little trouble with the photos... © R. Presta Sign in to see full entry.
