Disquietude and Butterflies I worry too much about the past which can't be undone, about the present that unfolds without a chance to slow time down, so I can feel I am in control. I worry about the tomorrows and how to make my life worthwhile, can it be done, can I fill it with joy, will I ever stop these butterflies that are always in motion. I worry when I don't hear from you, friends and family, loves of past and present and I wonder how I can fit everyone in a life that hasn't found a way yet to settle itself down. I worry why these tears fall without notice, why I am so sensitive to everything, temperature, sight, taste and especially your touch and how at any moment I ache for something I don't have. I worry how one acquires these non-material gifts and how long it will take for comfort to find me... When with you, I am at ease, anxiety disappears and I am left with only the butterflies. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

Maureen, You captured the rebuilding of one's life so well. This is precious and so real....you were able to write that which many have experienced, in the unique, eloquent way you have of weaving words. Enjoyed this. Hugs and warm regards, Pat ..without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.. |

Ah,MoGal~ 'will I ever stop these butterflies that are always in motion.' When given wing ... the butterfly flits forward ... that seems to me to be the direction you are headed~ Love your metamorphosis~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Marge, I ran out of my medicine last night...therefore I slept poorly and my mood has me off the wall with seasonal ideas. You should see me trying to make 16 different craft items, 10 of each and painting, sewing, gluing almost simultaneously...I just had to take a break... I am going to put them on Ebay and earn a bit this way for now. Thank you Pat and Sy M |
