Sam's Poems From the Waiting Days — [Mildred's Garden]
()
About this ebook
When musician Sam Gillenwater wants to win the heart of bed-and-breakfast proprietor Mildred Ruffner, he turns to poetry—writing luminous verse straight from his soul.
This lovely volume includes his poems from "the waiting days" in the novel 'Mildred's Garden'—including previously unpublished verse.
your absence
at my door leaves
a long shadow. I
put my hand to the
empty frame.
you are
scent of apple in
the rain
slip of leaf
light-tipping over water
snow-capped
mountain peak
rising near
the hollows of me.
the air waits
for the echo of us
to begin again
begin again
