My friend laughs with delight Expression gleeful Voice lilting with expression As she tells of her husband’s shirts Tattered and worn Hidden in her closet in plain sight And I wonder if she realizes These touch stones of his past Only remain hidden out of sight Because he loves her so - Alison ~ with thanks to Amaryllis for reminding me that I love to write ![]() |

"Hidden in her closet in plain sight And I wonder if she realizes These touch stones of his past Only remain hidden out of sight Because he loves her so" That is just beautiful with such a twist of thought. The economy of words and the feelings expressed with poetic seasoning of time. Don't know why you'd ever think you shouldn't be writing? Eric |

You ever stop writing and I'll hunt you down like a husky hunts a seal (er, do huskies hunt seals?) Anyway, you get my drift ![]() |
