I'm not afraid to say it

I miss you.

Short and sweet but powerful.

Not simple words on a blank page
but my heart.

In the open
and for real.

I can count my true friends
on one hand.
and you are a finger...
finger number two
outta five.


I ain't afraid

I miss you.

It feels good to speak what's in the heart, dear Dixie. And friends such as the one you address, are ever so precious and they surely love to hear they are missed.

Touching.

Love,
Margherita

"Absence makes the heart grow fonder." This poem, so elegant, and as soft as a morning in spring, is living proof! A true friend is worth more than precious stones. You write with such tender passion.  ---Art

When you miss someone, you really know how much of your heart they inhabit.  Yeah... and perfect love casts out fear!  What lovely lines and thoughts you leave here.

This is a very touching poem and a loving and beautiful response.  I am sure I was not the only one holding my breath a bit.  D & M, you are both pretty special PiP people.

These are not simple words on a blank page but honest feelings that reach deep inside.

Two out of five, Dixie?  If this is for 'Deer, I can see you aren't counting the thumb as a finger.  lol

It is a very sweet poem, Dixie, and so typical of you to write it so well.
