I've done a pretty good job of
hibernating this winter
holed up in my concrete cave
locking the world out
just me and
my memories
or
lack of them
lots of time
to
wallow in whys
chase fears with tears
sink into sadness
I
took off the
rose colored glasses
a long time ago
my eyes
have adjusted
to the
starkness
of
gray
the pain
seems to
hurt less
in
that
shade
Not as
taxing as
sorting
through  all
the colors
Soon clocks
every where
will be
springing
ahead
before long
Mother Nature
will awaken
with vigor
and
vim
life will bud
anew in all of
its glorious beauty
that which
has lain
dead
and
dormant
will
flourish
once
again
No looking
back at
what was
or
what could
of  been
the secret
is
to find the
reality of
what is
and
what can
be
It's been a
long winter
the journey
through
heart
and
soul
has been
agonizing
but
sometimes you
have to brave
the heartache
to get
to the
healing
I
for one
am ready
to come
out of
hibernation

Color
my
world

Hey Pinky...

Looks like we're both roaming around on a Sunday afternoon.

Relating emotions to our passing seasons is to be in touch with ourselves from within and our surroundings from without. As the two become one we find both love and tolerance, a discipline of sorts without jagged edges.

That being said, I liked reading something of you from a different perspective. Your years are showing with grace and keen perspective.

Just don't EVER post 'tall' poetry again or I'm really gonna give it to ya!  


Just out looking for the real me...

I liked the long poem though I usually am not a real big fan. But yours, Your Pinkness, gave the sensation of growing sprouting and blooming. It really worked great. ~L
