Those Lips

The dog days have waned…

The mornings have a bit of a chill…

The first days of Autumn are upon us…

While I stood with a cup in hand…

A brief gush of air upon my cheek…

A gentle sound upon the sidewalk…

A single leaf laid near my feet…

Its shape made me smile and even chuckle…

It was then I began to see her features…

The outline of her chin followed by her cheeks…

A little button of a nose…

Eyes I will never forget…

A top her forehead…

A series of styles and colors…

Her ears…

And then her neck…

Where her scent invited my lips…
