Dandelion Spaces

I call your name to the same dandelion spaces
Where there, I found your sparkling heart
Dotting field in yellow bliss turns tender to the sun
Though now, returns of an opaque silence
Deafening echoes of hollow drum retort in crimson veil
Lifting from a husk, to carry my thoughts higher
In disbelief I stare, remembering each stage hope fills
So suddenly to blossom beneath the tears of God
It’s then I know this empty place impervious to time
Where life was lent to me, as joy and sorrow

“So suddenly to blossom beneath the tears of God
It’s then I know this empty place impervious to time

Life is for the taking and giving, sharing thought and emotion.
And you are a blessed soul expressing your God given talent.
This verse alone speaks volumes of your understanding and passion for life.
Beautifully expressed.

Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed:
blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.

... and here my tears flow and mix with God's and yours for the utter beauty of your words, almost unbearable for what they convey.

Immensely poignant, dear (((((Kathleen)))).

In writing, your heart finds a way to cope.

Love and hugs.

Kathleen,
Your pen cries tears of a love
gone too soon.

I am so very sorry for your loss.
Hearthugs sweet lady.

Dandelion yellow comforts the eyee, as the heart knows the true essence and value of its presence. Sending you peaceful thoughts on the soon-to-be feathery orbs of winged dandelion dancers.

Kathleen~
Having read this earlier ... I just couldn't find the words ... upon looking out across the back lawn this morning ... I see those Dandelion faces ... and they made me think of you and of your tremendous loss~

Just sending a 'thought-bouquet' of those Dandelions to you~
