The crunching of leaves

snapping and breaking are fresh,

like our memories.

Thank you, I wrote this in mind for the best of friends meeting for the last time before one moves away, and they meet in their special place in the forest for the last time. It reminds me of my parting with my best friend years ago, but I still remember the great times we had together, and our attempts to stay in contact.
