Almost There

I'm almost there, I feel it more
the calm that whispers, waiting for.

I leave for you a note each day,
a tiny snack to fill your stay.

I'm almost there, inside I know
it won't be long, reflections show.

There's room within, this windows time,
wasted not, the want in rhyme.

I'm almost there, in need of you,
prepared for change, a dance of new.

Embossed, the feel, the rainbows end
in random thoughts, to you, I send.

Each day I'm yours, in words on blue...
I'm almost there, in want of you.

M

Maureen darling heart there is no one who can build a piece with the ease of you, how I wish I could write this well and know that I never will. Truly exquisite writing darling heart I love it utterly utterly


Love and warm stuff
as always
Mushy

Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the earthquake wind and fire
