A sad on but hey poetry comes from the heart right ! Home I came the inland road, Down through Harvey way, Where I stopped by the river, And whiled some time away. ~ I thought of love and life, The things that it had brung, Thought of you and me, And how our hearts had sung. ~ The freedom of the road, Can’t undo the pain, But it soothes an aching heart, Gives me hope again. ~ Now I sit alone in silence, In a house that once was warm, Ghosts are whipping ‘round me. From the road that we have worn. ~ I can hear Alexander’s chatter, Leading Poppy by the paw, I think of little Rebecca, And the things she used to draw. ~ I can see you to my love, Doing dishes by the sink, Fussing over breakfast, And you’re funny special wink. ~ The echo’s of our life, Chafe my aching heart, They pull me into sadness, Remind me we’re apart. ~ But daily I grow stronger, To face what is ahead, For I to dare to hope. For the things that we have said. ~ |

Oh, this was sad. You said it very well. I hope things will turn around for you soon, and the sunnier days return! <*\\\>< There's only two ways you can go... One way you can save your riches, And the other will save your soul. Rich Mullins |

Paulsm~ Of course it's sad, but it's well-said. Nothing like truth in longing. May the sunshine your way and light your heart with the warmth of her rays. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Sad, yes...but reads with a sense of sincerity that I found becoming. Within sadness can be found truth. Very, very nice. Claire |
