Loving At A Distance yesterday I saw a glimpse of you and maybe it was not you at all perhaps just the way the water plays in the gulf the bounce and sparkle of the present past and again I felt that familiar pang of loving in the distance drifting past the sun I made my way home before the darkness could bring the wishing stars with their silent secret request that had been hung there by me many times before and their echo of denial just some words cut out |

It is an ache. Especially if they keep in touch..  you said it perfectly."too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

Oh man did I love this one, and wish I could had the ability to write it. It speaks volumes to me Helen, and again, so well done. Poigant but just beautiful! |

Marvelous work Helen. Some of them are better loved at a distance and some of them... well I don't have to tell you, do I? |
