            Once More
 Once more to see your smile,
 your honey sweet face.
 Once more to feel the softness,
 warm, thick in my hands.
 Once more to live your world,
 smell the dirt, feel the grass,
 chase the chipmunks in your eyes.
 Sniff the evening breeze that's carried on the miles.
 Once more to hear you,
 your breathing echo mine,
 my little shadow, so quiet behind me,
 always there, always there,
 once more.
 Once more to feel the tiny heartbeat lay in my arms,
 hear the sigh,
 share our peace.
 My little piece of heaven.
 Once more to live a memory,
 laugh a moment.
 Once more to be young,
 young together.... again.
 Once more to not be alone.
 Once more to be with you.0

 wow, Pandora.
 Simply beautiful.
 It's been a while since I checked this thread, and reading all of your recent posts. It's glorious and so delicate and fragile but strong and defiant. Your writing, poetry and not, brings a calm and a serenity that we all need. To remind us of what's important.
 brilliant :clap: thanks for sharing0

            Come Sit With Me Now
 Come sit with me Dad.
 Come sit here next to me.
 See the chair is empty here.
 Come sit with me Dad.
 It is a straight chair
 with a small footstool
 just like we like now.
 Come sit with me Dad.
 Come sit with me awhile.
 We will hold hands like we used to.
 Come put your hand in mine Dad.
 Your hands, warm, soft and wrinkled,
 white clean nails,
 just like my hands now.
 Come sit with me Dad.
 Come sit and sip some too Dad.
 See I've made a mint julep,
 strong sweet fragrant.
 Smell the icey mixture of yesterdays.
 Come sit and sip with me now, Dad.
 Come sit and listen Dad.
 Listen to the music Dad.
 Listen to the music and we will tap our feet.
 And we will smile along
 even though we can not dance now.
 Come sit with me Dad.
 Come sit here in this empty chair.
 And we will share a thought or two now.
 Come sit with me Dad....
 come sit now,
 if only in my thoughts.

 Black Coffee In A Rainy Mood 
 Black coffee in the rain,
 Shedding droplets like feathers,
 with the company I keep.
 A warm roast steam, swirls the damp,
 a touch of bitter
 to my cool wet lips, then smile.
 Blinking away a wet blur,
 seeing the garden puddles form,
 a promise to wash clean a new day.
 Rainy music, the morning beat
 carried through the day,
 dancing away mistakes, hiding tears till night.
 Rejoice in the Love of Lady Rain!0

            I awoke to see you standing there
 shaggy silhouette
 moonlight just enough.
 My heart went still
 then began to beat so fast so loud
 it echoed in my ears.
 I remembered you
 from a dream
 the dream of a day after tomorrow.
 I remembered you
 from childhood
 a daydream wish come true.
 I remembered you
 from pictures
 and a photo never taken.
 Beating heart be still
 now
 take me
 so I can remember you
 no more. 0 0

            "The function of prayer is not to influence God,
 but rather to change the nature of the one who prays."
 Everyone who touches my life changes me.
 Matters not if I can
 see them
 or hold them
 or hear them
 I feel them
 once with me they are in my heart and this can not be separated
 even by leaving this world.
 Love knows no bounds.0

 Death's Door
 A two weeks eve
 your normal day,
 a day of love and loss.
 When you knock
 no memories come,
 they are all left behind.
 To weak to reach
 for a hand,
 then a hand comes to yours.
 The only thing,
 that matters now,
 is who's hand is
 on the end.0

            Distance
 hiding from the unavoidaable
 distance me from you
 can't relive the memories
 no more string to stich up wounds
 took me in
 then left me for my own
 can't belive you'd do this,
 how you're chilled to the bone
 stupid and reckless
 concious taken away
 ripped out from under me
 when already wobbling
 struggling to stand on my own
 divide the divided
 subtract from four
 and what you get is me
 and my mistakes galor
 hand printed windows
 crying for escape
 open door
 welcome to leave
 but afriad of what the outside world will make me see
 in my reflection
 changed but with no intention
 intuectually beaten
 grasping handle
 pull open door
 convincing myself to escape
 but i know i won't
 the little monster deep inside
 screaming for more
 it's need to feed
 loving what ive come to be
 But i am who i am and there is no need to change
 so i shut the door
 than catch my reflection in the broken glass
 and come to realize
 i like what i see
 i came to realize i like me“I told you from the start just how this would end. When I get what I want, I never want it again.” — Courtney Love

            Cottage Smell and Melting Snow...
 funny what can trigger our memories
 pleasant or otherwise.
 Cottage Smell
 not like pink tea roses or bakery bread
 or rain
 but that smell that immediately transports to a different place and time.
 Cottage smell
 a heavy old musty dank woody smell
 a smell of unfamilar surroundings, old furniture, old blankets,
 well water, lemon and sun tea, fresh grass, fireplace.
 Memories of
 bug bites, fireflies, dirt roads, lily pads, marshmallows on a stick.
 Forest green all around with a lake to match and a pier to jump from.
 Men who walk on the moon, bacon and eggs, cool water,
 sunshine, dragonflies the size of my hand, Mom with her brandy oldfashioned.
 Steppenwolf, pink sandals, sunburned shoulders, blueberry popsicles.
 Whispers in the dark drowned out by more crickets than there were stars,
 that's a lot of crickets!
 Long days, short nights, days to count down til home.
 Missing you cause you could never stay,
 tears of loss, dreams of shame, feeling alone when not.
 Growing up but never wanting to.
 Cottage smell
 still filled with the opposing emotions that have always been me
 because of you.0

 me too!
 it was Fathers Day I was sitting on the back deck really feeling my fathers presence.
 He left this world in 1990 but it feels like yesterday.
 Time doesn't seem to exist in love.
 My health problems today have brought me to be much like him.
 Silver lining in that is so has my understanding of him and his life.
 Everything comes around and the older we get the more we forgive.0

 my friend said the other day.. "you are the only person I know who talks to lizards"
 I pondered a moment and said
 ' that must be why people don't seem as happy as they could be' 
 You are right about the boys and they are an awful lot of fun 
 Just keep your heart open, remain fearless in love, and love you will win in the end
 Count yourself lucky if you have one good friend to count on for a lifetime.
 It's all that's needed.
 Enjoy your youth!
