Yard Sale of Thoughts

Apparate

Katie Frances Hartless

In Autumn, I catch feelings.

They say it’s nothing serious,

that memory is fleeting,

but when the sun starts retreating,

I find my land below the old willow,

get to full moon swinging,

count the fireflies like long ago

in that same cool evening.

      Yes. I haven’t seen any all year, but I love the idea of a nostalgic ghost. Where might you return to haunt, friend?👻👻

      Thanks, Colleen. 💜 I’ve been haunting some of my childhood places in my mind lately. I’m missing the fall here in Thailand.

        I didn’t know you were in Thailand. That’s wonderful. What an experience that must be.
