"Distant"

out of sight, not out of mind
too much distance, so much time
all of which are so unkind
to the body and the mind

each takes their toll
upon the soul
‘till dreams remain
all the same

a fleeting moment of forgotten memories
manifest as a momentary passing faint smile

I am especially fond of:

"out of sight, not out of mind
too much distance, so much time
all of which are so unkind
to the body and the mind"

applause!

gentle Sir MoonShadow

words that float above my head
and ask for lodging

beautiful and yet so sad

  Susan... thank you for your consideration.

  Bruce... you find the central essence

  Kate... Such eloquent words dignify my humble offering, Milady. Thank you.
