A summer of the bird
====================
Like the bird the next door neighbor
Has left in your care
During their vacation
And you have fallen in love with,
Summer months of long nothing
Is chirping to a sad tone.
The knowledge of whys and wheres
Does not answer the sweet bitterness.
The unfinished best seller with its dog-ears,
Paint brushes and unfinished rambles,
Found and lost showcase of path to the kingdom…

You still wait for the anxious moment
To return the summer bird
To someone who own it.

clever talks delay friendship!

Very moving and poignant. I enjoyed the way you compared a period of your life to the bird

I feel this powerfully.

Beautifully touching, dear Ku!

Love and hugs, dear friend.
