Feeling around in the dark A light switch in the night Owls about, cool early morning About to come. Empty feeling, cups alone Meals not shared Since you have gone Doors unlocked Your return here I wait Staring at the latch Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love (Daniel J D) |

Daniel, If it is real she will return . . .you never know. Nice work. LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
