She caught
anticipation

by her fingertips

then felt
the burn.

Scars never heal

over want,
or anticipation.

True words, I've seldom heard.

Of all I've lost; I miss my innocence  the most.

The hand of her soul
Burnt by fire’s emotion
Anticipation
Is cooled by light flakes of snow
To memories softer glow

You are so right...Scars never heal over want or anticipation...But they do in their own time.  Wonderful job on this one!

Gadzooks, you're amazing! I just noticed that you are nearing your 32,000 th post!

Don't stop reaching your hand out in anticipation or want. We may get burned once in awhile, but as you know dear poetess, sometimes we receive the mother load! Great little write!

Warm hugs,
Linda
