Poetry: Once Upon A University Drive

Memories. 
The hottest ticket in town.
Still art, dancing and bleeding poetic life.




© Once Upon A University Drive

Leaning on a crutch of photos,
Vivid and pale ghosts from my past
Dance around me tinted with gaiety,
Nonchalance, and somberness,
Bringing shadowed and vivid memories
Once again ambrosial or unsavory.

Prone on spots in time, I linger;
Fifty values of gray hues covering
A wistful heart’s pale blue floor blanket
As lighter chromas of gray framed
Outside my window come singing stormy
Songs written by a factious wind.

  1. Those winds do indeed toy with our "remember whens". Well captured
