Blue Words your words could have saved me surrounded me and covered me in warm kisses and healed wounds far past places under my skin but pencils don’t write as much as they use to and phones sit quiet waiting for the other to dial who is it to say they were right and who is to say wrong and who will say sorry who really cares who was right and what does it all matter anyway when something said is better than all this damn silence I do remember a time when words brought us together and now all they do is echo the gulf just some words cut out |

silence calls to us in this and I'm wishing you both surrender to the moment, forgetting what is now past. Wise right |

My God, that was a long breath, lol. I love love love this. The truth, the passion, it is so fluent in speech and style. You have an immense gift most would kill for. Cheers - Ed "Give me a museum, and I'll fill it." |

How is it that words can be so powerful, so gentle and caring, so honest and true if you will. And yet so meaningless!!! Great poem, it's always good to read you Helen~ |

Helen, this has so much ache in it. I hope the communication is found again. Silence hurts so badly at times. Hugs, Ethel |

This makes me hurt. Remember though, sometimes distance is only distance, and sometimes it is partly an illusion caused by things that loom too big in the foreground. The hard part is that it's almost impossible to tell them apart. |

Your words always comfort me for I know whether they are happy or sad they are from the heart and that adds so much more to the meaning of your poems |
