spiderwebs, lacy memories
For Poppy's Prompt Thingo 3
spiderwebs, lacy
memories
reminders of who
has been
like knickers
in the basket
spiderwebs, glistening
hail
tell the tale
they tell
like coffee stains
on tabletops
the scent of vanilla,
waxy residue
candlewick
burn out
emotional
black out

Thanks for reading!
Author's Notes: This is a piece for Poppy's Prompts thingo number 3. The words she chose this time around made me think of things that are left behind after people or things go.
If you want, here are a few more pieces...joyfulness may vary.
