Like leaves on the tree Affection too, fades Emotion, is wind that stores and it trades The bloom becomes brittle and that is okay The thatch of the season is starting, to gray We cannot blame hope for holding our dream The weather of span, sometimes loosens, the seam The forest of bones and briar, of shrine Hold all the mystery and shelter, we pine Unhappy of hollow the miles have logged We branch out for solace asleep, in the fog Just know when you hear the bark soft from the ground I was just hoping to one day, be found Touching the breeze all my pain, is now free The sky was the hand that could save me, from me  |

A rich treasure-chest of interesting, intertwined, philosophical thoughts, Richy. As always, wordplay par excellence. I love the combination of sensitivity and accountability. Amazing photo, too!  Owl |

quote: The poem began on a very good two lines and picks up from there. Floating within all of the many stanza's of this hodgepodge of a poem are the wounds of human existence. There are more quotable lines, but I'm sticking with the first two. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |

Jerry you are a very kind and giving man.. you and Diana and a blessed few more are really keeping this place alive and welcoming i thank you for that this place.. is almost sacred in many ways to those favored few who have left parts of their being and whole in the layers of laughter and pain that echo still, when all have logged off yes thank you for greeting the new, and the old.. with the warmth of a smile and the, Pat, on the back |

Richy your words were like a massage that felt so good until they happened upon sore and tender places. It was very powerful for me. Touching to say the least. lori |
