Where the heck have you been? Susan This is an incredibly strong moment you've captured. I love moments. The brevity is so striking. BTW...I'm fine. Just had a bit of a moment, myself. Lost loves make for great poetry, don't they? Well, at least you got a story out of it! |

Beautiful-- for he or she There is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar. |

Noah, always so sweet to me, thank you ![]() Michael, I hope it touched gently, thank you(((hugs))) Ecrivan, I couldn’t even if I tried…..and believe me, I’ve tried….thank you Bluesy, yes, they do….I really wouldn’t have it any other way….thank you Cowboy, I have been overwhelmingly busy….LOL….yeah, lost loves tend to stick around the heart, never really letting go, or is it that we hold on??? (I’m glad you are ok, but the lots of hugs still stands…. ![]() Marge, high praise from you, thank you so much ![]() |

I’ve had moments like these Sea…I think we all have. The memories live on…but, when we’re ready, they do fade...until we can smile without the tears. If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

This is a lovely tearful poem, Sue ![]() It reminds me so much of the time right after my first husband died. I would sleep with his picture and talk to it. I even got a special frame from Radio Shack. Its a talking picture frame and I recorded his answering machine message from work onto it...so, I would pretend he was answering me. Everyone thought I was crazy. I was just grieving. ![]() copyright2002 Lyra Nesius |

A spark within a cell of the mind of a love that we once could find A joy of the feeling of an embrace as love does so softly kiss a face. Welcome back Sue...Have been missing your beautiful words... |

"Till she thought she’d bleed Memories….." I love this one. Both the picture and the poem speak volumes about lost love moments. |
