Between/betwixt,
a bridge of desire spans the gap;
reach out softly and touch
the  elusive  memory, a
gradual drift back in search
of what once was.

Wired strands of heart
so strongly fretted  vibrate
through these painful  thoughts.
Lost in that distant time
a hand trembles to reach out,
unable to bridge the gap
between two lands filled
with old despair that keens on
the whistling wind.

Slowly the fog
veils the memories that
echoes from a misty past,
and it is the curvature of the gull’s wing
that defines the wind’s song in the soul.


Wordancer, the one who dances with words.

You are perfection in these choices of words!
Surely your name befits the magnitude of your gifted "waltz with words"! Ellie

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.
