Hydrating Play the song it vibrates listen win roots of trees are dirt bound I wave like leaves the birds my alibi sing the sun is warm and feathers are my heart Midnight was so long ago and the color of shadows making corners in open spaces talking of this and that a child hiding under the bed waiting for feet to dangle she threads the sharp hole of her own despair She is no longer there Play that sweet guitar it’s day along the wire where I hold on looking for the rip current of air where I can jump into the drift thermal riding with my hair It’s time to up turn and dig out scratch the shovel take the glen listen wind I am your friend into the day I’ll win the ticket heavy in my hand Don’t tell the goodbye yet I’ll just drink one drop and let it pour from someplace catch and fill of cloud a river is so written with my will I’ll drive it home so that just one tear can fall and gift it to you that is all ---------- for Michael Auguste |

This is so much feeling that I am left without words. You make me humble (not necessarily an easy task). |

This is beautiful Martie and so are YOU.   M Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. |

"It’s time to up turn and dig out scratch the shovel take the glen listen wind I am your friend into the day I’ll win the ticket heavy in my hand" Love the verse above. It's so hard to let go, I know. to you |

We may become stronger for the burden, but that doesn't make it any less, nor reduce the importance of carrying it. A poem like this....is a blessing freely given and welcomed by everyone who receives it, not just the person for whom it was written. Well done, my lady...Well done. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
