We never said good bye the wind blew in all directions like a last hurrah. The time changed and leaves fell the chill of winter and mixed emotions settled like a flurry breathing in whispers dusted white. The skyline cleared long after the springtime of my life treasures buried deep beyond reason between shadows of the seasons. I keep you near and dear to my heart passing by through my minds eye missing you there in those moments we shared knowing we are never going back.

Well done reminiscing of the past. Though hurtful you have found a way to miss what you had in a good way. Sometimes things were just not meant to be. I very much liked the tone of this. ~*~ If they give you lined paper write sideways. ~*~ |

This tugs at my heart strings, dear Bluesy Gal! If we miss something/someone it means it was very special to us so I'm not sure if one can ever really miss it in a "good way" - in the heart that is no matter what the mind knows. Just a big sigh now for everyone because we all can miss so much if we're a certain type of person. Sometimes I envy those who can totally block out "yesterday". That said, stunning poem! So good to see you here again. Helen |

Put me in the perfect mood. "beyond reason between shadows of the season" Nice, that sings to me like a song. This feels like the easing from summer into fall and of a May to September love wilting away. Dig it! |

Powerful imagery. I loved it, even though it was sad overall, you've preserved something precious in this that you will always have. Beautifully done. Michael |

"I keep you near and dear to my heart passing by through my minds eye missing you there in those moments we shared knowing we are never going back." I can relate to this verse especially, Lor. Nice to be visiting and reading some of the best from the best today~~ M |
