WOMAN she was waiting for a bus on a rainy Tuesday morning and a child there was no bus, only this cold rain and her tears hidden in the quiet darkness of the night and a child also waiting for this bus she does what has to be done and nobody cares and she doesn’t go dancing anymore but she likes drinking a cup of coffee in a very small kitchen sometimes with a friend but most of the time alone a woman without fashion a woman carrying our burdens a woman who doesn’t really believe in love anymore a woman who has not much time for god and who cares anyway? does she need god? god needs her for doing his will on this earth she does what has to be done and after all the dancing and drinking and fighting she cleans up and takes care of those who suffer she waits for her bus and a child on a dark and rainy Tuesday morning but on one very bright day with flowers in the air her bus will arrive and only she will be there and a child with a magical smile on it’s face |

You have penned the heartache and the loneliness so well...that ache of waiting wanting and not even knowing what for We all have wings...some of us don't know why |

Agust, great poem, I particularly liked the waiting lines although in real life I hate waiting for anything, even for the kettle to boil. Write on Kethry Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen. |
