Re-thoughts & Blank Pages

You read like lyrics
written long ago,
from an era
when your pen could flood my pages,

an age when re-thoughts were redundant.

It was easy then,
Every word as it should be...

But voices mature and

Words plead for deeper meaning.

I re-thought you

and me,

and the blank pages between us.

And,
Taking up my own pen,
I filled the emptiness.

FABULOUS!


so you and Erato are duking it out for perfection?

You win!

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

"And taking up my own pen, I filled the emptiness"
There is nothing more beautiful in life than self affirmation.
Loved this Patricia.

I know this well...

it can be easy at times, in eras, for pages to become books...I know

Mm where ever are the words to describe this masterpiece?

I adore.

If I were to touch you, would you bleed a velvet river, running miracles through the sodden ground? --Moi
