You brought me from My place of darkness, Amidst my place of confusion. Now that I'm strong and Doing well, I can feel A breeze as your wings Begin to flutter. I see that our season Is receding, But the words are too Painful to utter. I that know our season Will soon be gone. I know that you won't be long. Long is the length of The wisdom you gave. These are the things That I will cherish and save. It wasn't that I did Anything wrong, But the breeze from your wings, Tells me that you won't be long. I will turn...and you will be gone. Observe the animals and they shall teach you the nature of life in man. Observe the earth and it shall reveal the nature of life in God. |

This touched me. I truly loved it. The last line was great. |

Perhaps your gardian angel who, now that you are strong again, moves on to help other souls in pain? Beautiful written Titia |

A time for all seasons. Write on. Live for love. Without love, you don't live. |

Sometimes we just know in our hearts something is over, and we have to move on. Well said |
