At twilight time the smog makes a rainbow – Tom Petty
Watching you joyfully run to him
in the nascent twilight
as it caresses the leaves with its
mellifluous cadence, evoking
bittersweet nostalgia –
the spice of yesteryear, now amorphous
like the mist that sheathes the lake,
I wrap myself in the idea of us again.
