Barefoot by the Season

Dew-kissed grass licks bare soles
seeking crocus crowns.

Cool liquidized sand
oozes between nail-polished toes.

Pulverized brittle red-gold leaves
prickle calloused heels.

Cold floor tiles ~
prelude to hot soaking bath.

Barefoot by the season,
almanac supreme.

    Seems like every time I read your words I discover how truly kindred we are. Barefoot is how life should be lived. I am taken by the cleverness of the first lines – soles can be read as souls, changing the types of crowns that are sought. Wonderful trip through the seasons in barefeet! Dig those tan lines in the photo πŸ™‚
