Hi everyone, I have been away. I had to clean house so to speek. This is a repost of my first poem posted.

A season

I held her hand,
She held my heart

I asked her
If the leaves
Gave thought
Of the branches

She asked?
Do the branches
Respect the leaves

I asked ?
Can one thrive
Without the other

She said
I am here
Loose your thoughts
And I will open
Like a leaf

She asked
Will you be
Strong and supple
As a branch

She said
Remember
In the fall
I must move on

He said
I shall save your spot
Until spring
Will you return

She said
Nay
Such is life
But we may share
For a season

He said
You gather the light
And feed me
I?ll draw from the earth
And feed thee
Such is life
For a season
We are one

I held her heart
She held my hand

Dan Owens

Throw your heart out in front of you
And run out to catch it.
ARAB PROVERB

I like this very much. I didn't get to read it the first time. I guess it's better to appreciate the time we share and not question when it will end.
Wonderful!
