A Picture's Worth |

I think about tomorrow and the yesterdays' come through, allowing me the comfort in the soft of view or two. When perspective was a carefree song and loving saw no end. I think about it often when lost feelings rise again. I watch him when he walks by and I wonder what he thinks. Mistakes were made twice over and the rosy paled to pinks. So faded are the memories and feelings once so strong, I wonder what he thinks about since separated long. Does darkness leave him lonely as I often have that feel? Do holidays and remembrances fulfill the need to heal? I look at portraits like a child still wondering what went wrong. But it's too late, there is no more. Those words, now thoughts in song. It's been awhile since hearing them, those three, that warm a heart. The meaning of has hidden truths that sets the world apart. Tomorrow I will think again knowing all the world's a stage believing in the call of love despite advancing age. Tonight I'll think of yesterday and comfort in mind's view remembering the once upon, a picture's worth or two.

Thank you Keth, nice to see you here. MsSouthernOrchid, that's the fun of poetry, being able to relate to what you read. Thank you Pressie for stopping to read...and welcome. Thanks JamesM ..holidays can be lonely so you have to think about some of the past joys in life. Interloper, always nice to know you are here I..wish I had the energy to even read more but the Winter(darkness) is not my favorite time of the year unless it's snowing and the world looks so bright. It's early to bed and early to rise...for now. LeeJ, so good to see you back..missed you. I was just having a "holiday moment" remembering how it once was and wondering if I was the only one feeling this way. Thank you for your lovely words. Mostly, I am too tired to write..not that I don't have the thoughts..just my brain and fingers don't feel like cooperating for now. It's those 26 six year olds...just imagine having the brightest children in the school as your class. Speaking of which..they each have poetry journals... M |

If there is ever another book done this has to be in it! I loved the feeling in this Maureen, and you couldn't have said this better... quote: If you want it - it will come, and until then a picture speaks more than a thousand words, it speaks love. |
