Just For The Sake Of Wonder


Do you suffer my absence
as I do yours?
It hits me sometimes
at the slamming of doors
in quiet rooms I frequent
soft carpeted floors
high walls with windows
overlooking corner stores.

Every now and then
I wonder, just for the sake
of wonder itself, if
at times, you break
down and let me in
to cause you to shake,
and if you still believe
good memories are hard to make.

I think this is my favourite of all of your poems that I have read, but it makes me sad to see that you are still feeling this pain.

You almost make ME shake, dear Dixie, with these impressive words of yours!

So good to have you back in here!

Love and hugs.

I thought this smacked of that Dixie style from about a year ago...
Enjoyed the rhythm of this one.
Nice to have you back here with us.
