Toddle Trek

fog drenched air
wet gray blanket
covers summer day
sleep dazed and new

young watchful close
mother ‘longside trike
toddle boy racing, full
of morrow vision dreams

quick bird song
falling deep muted
smothered away wet
within blanket gray

hard, in flashes
mother memories now
of other toddle boy
long gone grown

well is to watch close
this shrouded morn
over precious life your own
watch remember well
I would say
could I say aught
to young mother there

verdant memory precious
hold heart close
of this toddle trek,
tomorrow toddle boy
off to college goes
long lost to you
ever more
except in memory
One of the poems I've had it in mind to write recently. Inspired by a walk, and life in general.

Well it's certainly not my style :) but it IS yours, which is cool, haha
-

Two things, "of morrow vision dreams" I would remove vision
-

"within blanket gray"
"wet gray blanket"

Repeated, dunno if that was intentional or not
-

Good work though :)
