"Just the way you look tonight..."
remembering when that meant
something to someone
and to me...when across the room
I could feel that inward smile
of outward approval.

When just a whisper of possibilities
would arouse
and surround the senses
and improve my vision
for each new tomorrow.

When the years in passing
felt alive with hope and
anticipation built on chances taken.

I am whethering the days,
watering the flowers yet to bloom,
combining the right paths to a wholeness,
a togetherness, even if alone.

I will miss what I can never have,
the hidden self, the all that you are,
the see of blueness,
the unconditional in...

Life is a challenge,
a state of mind in movement
and when it doesn't conform to expectations...
I need only reflect.

and I will, as you said, wear your words for the duration of the day today...
exceptional writing...enjoyed
lastly, rendering me of
That New York State of Mind...(wink)

Thanks Dixie...

Someday Lee, we should meet since we don't live all that far from one another...
I will have more time once school is out... keep that in mind, if you'd like  

hugs

Sometimes that is all it really is.
Taking chances.
