“FOREVER OF US BOTH”
by
Bill Charles
~~~~
Once in a while I sit on
the river bank and think
about things that were,
or might have been, and
I wonder of them…

I close my eyes and you
appear within, I see
your smile, the magic of
tenderness in your
eyes, and I feel serene
with the warmth of you…

Yet I ponder why I’m
here and you’re there,
perhaps it’s just the
grand scheme of things,
to be sure of the
forever of us both…

Most things in life are meant to be.

Your poem brings me peace
with the very thought of that.

Really nice BC~

Wistful longing can be painfully sweet...

Sending you a basket full of happiness,

Somewhere in there I'm sure you can smell the sweetness of her perfume....

To think of those we long for with such sweetness and longing can be the happiest thing in our lives, and can make us the most miserable...

I like the way you wrote...

It's hard to understand that grand scheme of things sometimes... especially when our scheme seemed so much better. *S*

This is beautiful, Bill... wistful and lovely.
