Listening to every heart

Sharing well…

Wishing one’s self away for a weekend…
with people who know you,
people who, for intelligent they are,
philosophize in ways that are
bent on legalities,
and then fun,

that is when you redirect
your wishes,

for quieter moments
where thoughts, ever pervasive,
are in your readings…

shhhh….

I spent a weekend away from
poet friends,

and,

I missed you…

there are so many of us…and
I drew
a parallel…

there were so many friends
with me this weekend,
philosophizing in ways that are
bent…
on legalities…

and then fun…

but none of them…
not a one,
spoke like me.  Or speak to me, as you do…
    nor will they ever speak like me,

however,

they ask…
how’s it going?  
How’s the book coming…
how’s your poetry site…

Oh yes, oh yes,
I can
converse like them
and,
we commiserate, we do that, we do!  
I enjoy my time with them so…

however…

this is where my ellipses makes sense,
my emotions take rise,
the tremble in my voice, were you to hear it…
you would perceive it
with its’ trembling…

and me?  I missed you…

O, I missed you so much….

The real world is there…
with your friends…
the real world is here…
with your friends…

my here friends never knew how much I
was missing
my there friends…

Share….

share well, all that you do.

Hello Karilea.....
I missed you so much. If I hadn't seen you here today, I probably would have asked in the Discussion Forum if you are okay.

I know how it is when you are away from these pages of blue and our Family of friends.....and you've been here a lot longer than I have. But, I completely understand.

Again, I'm glad to see you back, friend

===============================


*smiling at you* because you always just know.
2 things to share...

I was at the doctors office the other day and he commented...you express yourself so articulately...you choose your words well, I should write some of your analogies down. Then he said...Do you keep a journal, I would love to read it.

He aint got that much time...LOL

and..I was talking to a poet friend on phone, and she said..did you notice that the last few things you said rhymed.

Oh well....poetry happends

Lawyers or poets? It's an easy choice isn't it poetess Sun.

Let me come out from beneath the shadows of unlit minds and bathe in Sunshine!  With poems like this, I am feeling more and more at home here...in fact, I am touched.
