Pensive, with a subtle gleam in her eye

Shadowed, only, by the moon in the sky

In darkness, she roams, no path in sight

Taking flight, into the obsidian night

On a journey, no boundaries to halt her

Gliding, seeking, you cannot fault her

Searching for dreams, she will discover

Over the lands, as mighty wings hover

Swooping down, talons fierce, do clasp

With quiet dominance, she holds her grasp

Capturing prey, she is driven, a hunger

For now, only wishing, she was much younger

When trips through the dark, she didn’t tire

A spring in her step, her soul, raging fire

At times, she is distant, feels incomplete

Still the spark in her eye, shows she knows not defeat

Memories, you vow to keep forever

Wilting, dying, but leave you, never

Withered roses, from a love so true

Keeping them close to your heart, so blue

Try as you might, you cannot forget

A time in your life, you’ll never regret

Though dried up petals are all that remain

The sweetness of youth, you’ll always retain

Youth
Cascades of sherbet

Colored clouds, like orange ice

Remind me of youth
