    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.

    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 sharing

    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 L2D4.gif



    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!

    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.

    "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.

    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.
  • 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

    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.

    thank you for this!
    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.

    Whimsical is what I am! ... living amongst the birds and anoles :lol:

    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' :D


    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!

    and thanks for visiting :D

    it was neither truth
    nor lie
    fleeting nor lasting
    it was just... time

    two souls
    dancing in the breeze
    leaving nothing to fate
    only dreams
    Peace, Love.
