After the circus is over and the clowns have all gone home I'm left here with the sawdust, …feeling so alone After the party's ended And the crowd has disappeared I'm left standing in debris … feeling unendeared After this love has gone away And there's nothing left but dust I'm left coping with remains …of lechery and lust After my heart is mended And my world tilts back again I'll find a new and better love To banish all my pain. "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Kethry- "I'll find a new and better love To banish all my pain." And he will love me long and strong - proceed with patience, stay the course stay with me the whole night long and I'll awake the bed not bare knowing I've found a one with care. with poetry like yours - I will have to issue more challenges - well done very well done |

Thank you Wil, you gave a seductive aftermath to my "after" poem, really polished it up. Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |
