To Voices Silent As Winter settles around me and I hear the treasured sings, those memories resound the joy of pasttimes on my swing. When I would have in penciled hand words readied to pour out, gently pressed to paper's face till edged the loss of doubt. It is these days that hold me there awakening each dawn, standing strong in shadowed thought to words that I am drawn. To voices silent but spoken once from lips that touched this heart. What can one say, what can when do when lives go on apart? I grieve the loss of "almost was" but know behind this face, tomorrow brings a second chance to fill that empty space. Morning writes releasing thoughts, the smallest reflections of, knowing what it feels like to have been at least in love. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

Ma'am this was a very sweet poem. It reminded me when I was 15 and me and my first love would go to the park every week, and swing for hours talking. Even though I swing alone now, it brought back some great memories. I liked the way you reflected back in a postitve manner in the ending of this poem. Nicely done Morning writes releasing thoughts, the smallest reflections of, knowing what it feels like to have been at least in love. |

Excellent, lovely 'write': Especially 'meaningful' for me was: "I grieve the loss of 'almost was' but know behind this face, tomorrow brings a second chance to fill that empty space." [the above rather 'difines' me in this time and place!] Grand applause! |

"those memories resound the joy of pasttimes on my swing. When I would have in penciled hand words readied to pour out, gently pressed to paper's face till edged the loss of doubt." Grinning, felt I was on schoolyard swings! |
