Poetic License

Sometimes the process of telling story warrants a bit of poetic license. The reader decides what each image means to her/him. Below is a poem I wrote after a strong emotion came over me. What thoughts/feelings come up for you?


Edible Flowers for Dessert
Above the frosty sunset
Of contrast
and undertone
Concrete river
20 minutes before
The Bay
Still on the surface
but moving underneath
flowing over earth
pulling sand toward fire
