The Knowing Of I can't make it out the handwriting on the wall unrecognizable, each scrawl Those days have come and gone yet I am invaded by thought... what happens now, after then who will I call when I am the only one left behind who will I confide in reflect with, explain my movements to who will see my progress and cheer me on I searched for a four leaf clover yesterday, but only found weeds among the blossoms filling in the gaps not unlike my daily trials of broken promises, of silent need. I wander my words this morning, disorganized from sleep loss dreams not forthcoming, eyes tired and dazed by the mist that veils. I miss the little things that made me reach for ribbons to tie up my hair, to brighten my face allowing eyes to shine and lips to curve upward, dimples to show... I miss the morning good-byes, the I'll-return-kisses the knowing of later and the looking forward of. I search my mind for the last of words, those of endearment that have escaped usage as I close my eyes, begin this day and fall back in time. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

Lovely poem, though sad...I wish we could take all those times, and roll them up into a little reminder blanket, reminding us, to savor each moment, as if it were the best ever. Love to you, Lee J. |
