sweater black under gray
strands blow east
eyes gaze west

grass covers worn leather boots
height of autumn
color of winter

you have not guessed,
but I have arrived
watching you silent
from behind

imagining my hands
your denim pockets
presence travels
frosted breath clouds

head lifts slightly
you smell the air
dismiss recognition
as apparition

shoulders shrug off the cold
you turn for home.

Great stuff

There's so much this one makes me feel.

i've done the pause...as if someone I know is near

and we all too often dismiss it.

I've never seen anyone else write about it in such a heartbreaking yet beautiful way.

Thank you

I have a feeling that you know what is important--

don't forget that, just forget the blah blah blah critics who think they know who you are and why you write. Not one of us really knows that, only some pretend. Just stick around. Deal?

Title

The title is the most poetic part of your poem. It is a shame to waste a good title on drivel.
