Not to Worry

I've loved, I'm sure, the way of you;
anxious, sleepy, needing much,
accepting little;
rushed until you quite forgot how
"You smell great" seemed momentarily to settle something
deep. In you I've drifted
back and forth, as though a pebble
tossed into a pool disturbed.
I thought to calm you. I have the gift.
I would have shared
this
comfort in vulnerability.
But you moved on,
a stream of worry.

Some people just seem to flow on worrying....

God bless America, my home sweet home.
