How small and silent the place
between two navels...
how short the stretch    between the river
         and the ocean

how reticent the voice
on the first word spoken
after prickly sweet obscenities
have surfaced,   & made the mark
        in the throat.

You've certainly put a lot to think about in the comparison of two navels and the gap that arises with the wrong words spoken.  That is one lovely smile in your new pix.  Wow. Hugs Ken

That will keep me contemplating for a while, ya' know.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
