Neglect
Swirls like strong winds
Along cold fronts
Crazing with patterned frost
Morning.

The loose frown
Drawn between your brows
Clouds you

look at me,
And we’ll chase the storm
I see brewing just behind
The meaning in your eyes

to see if the curl
of high pressure
leaves us

stranded

wryly? Sybil the reply intrigues me but then again... perhaps there is more in a wry smile than in a hundred words.

Think more in line
at the word "neglect"
showing one's stubbornness
in leaving another stranded...

Always enjoy your words.

Always.

Yep, Capt...sometimes more can be seen in the eyes, than
can be heard from words.
I enjoyed reading.

(smiling) I think perhaps my mind clouded this AM... for wry smiles and added words still leave me fogged in... there are several ways to look at anything it seems.

thanks for the clarifications....

Ron:

A wonderful kind of love, willing to stand side by side, helping to weather a storm, brewing. Recognizing the pattern and being the lightening rod rather than the lightening.

Enjoyed this a great deal, and I can see other implications. But, I'll stick to the above and keep it simple.

Warm Regards, Pat

Bob... a drop of Bourbon over ice is good for you once in while. the 'crafted" is almost a cookie cutter isn't it... sometimes it gets pretty boring reading my own stuff, I'm too predictable.

Appreciate your dropping in.. always good to hear from you.

a metaphor of great sagacity

such a lesson to be learned in the cause and effect of a storm in a relationship

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Ron

It is not always easy to predict the weather, or the meaning behind a frown.  

I like the way you often use weather or nature to enhance the human connections you speak of.

"Neglect"
"look at me"

those 2 lines are the essence...the 'spark' that fuels the rest of the poem... to me anyway.....and the rest is as martie says the wonderful way you use nature to give voice to our emotions
