Only I Know

it comes to me,
quiet,

serene,

uninterrupted, this
feel,

only I know

as you most certainly are,

sitting there,
contemplating

sending the thoughts

trickling

foreverupwardtocatch
the first cloud  

to send to me
the rains

of your deliberations,

it comes to me
quiet ~

only I know

this fullness

of your contemplation

write with grace, all others lose face;
"Jo was very tall, thin, ... and reminded one of a colt..." LMA

I'm not sure that I fully understand this, but have a very close relationship with a person and do know the fullness of her contemplation at any given time, as does she my own.  Perhaps it's the many years that have created such a bond.  Enjoyed this and it caused me to think.  I like writing that does that.  Peace
