Can Think Of None

I sometimes think
of what might have been
then I just take it
on the chin
there are finer things
that I have done
but I
can think of none
took a walk
out in the rain
to cleanse me
of such great pain
somehow got lost again
in my way
another thread
became a fray
and will this cotton
turn to lint
or will it turn
back to print

Obviously back to print Dear Lady.
Is a pleasure to read your words again.
Especially when they tell of strenght.

lint or print? Glad it went this way.

I'd go for the print ... writing about things helps to put them in perspective, even if not until a later date, as we look back
Enjoyed your poem
you wrote this very nicely
