Between Here And There

I wonder are you still busy
All work and no play
Could that be the reason
You found nothing to say

Many things to get through
So hectic life can be
Having deadlines to meet
You have no time for me

I notice as weeks pass by
Missing you so much
I suppose you had no time
To even keep in touch

Being your forgotten friend
I found time to spare
Just writing you a reminder
Between here and there

I could feel the lonliness and frustration in this touching write! Some people get so caught up with their busy lives, that they forget to smell the coffee ~ or a sweet rose such as yourself.

Dear Hope, your beautiful, yet sad words speak of such longing! This hurts, may you detach and not cling to the past and open your heart to what can be NOW.
Love, Margherita

I sense a bit of cynicism, Hope, in this kind of bitter/sweet verse.  Hope he takes the time he should.   ...jo

  wish words could help -- but here's a hug.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

Sometimes life does tend to get in the way of things...Summer is one of my busiest times...Between Bill and myself we have 12 grandchildren who all want to visit during the holidays....I love them all dearly...**giggling** do they ever have a lot of energy...they sure can get one tired easily...I wouldn't trade it for the world...Just remember that even though life can get in the way there are many who think of you often and love you just the same...**hugs**

Yes, but sadly we are all givers and receivers at some time or other.
