February in my Arms February is In my arms still holding me Like a cloud in sky And I haven’t cried Don’t leave yet month too soon gone I see spring ahead Wait while I gather The tears from splinter’s fester I am infected Hold me still longer February in my arms Fading memory Open the dripping Do not seal the lament The mourning’s not let I am just a traveler looking for a home, finding I carry it around with me, and sometimes it's just too heavy. |

I've cried enough tears for both of us and several others in this bleak month... shall I share? *S* This is so beautiful, Martie... your love sparkles and endures and inspires... even without the prism of tears. |

Why do I weep when I read your February poems? Perhaps it's the sentiments that your words wring from the pits of my spirit, mixed with the loss I feel in your loss, because I love you Liz |

Not every body has the gracious ability to share heartache so well...God gave you many gifts, and writing has helped not only you, but so many others who believe they are alone in loss... thank you, Sissie. |
