Passion

"Lost a Love ,Found a Thumb"

The figure eight loop crosses love.
Hard lessons we learn,
A reattached thumb,lost....
Pointing it the wrong way..... in a dally ,
iced flesh and arena dirt
add dexterity cadaver crazy doctor
Baby Blue eyes ,Cowboy tough working,
She left the thumb,good as new,
Me....

Keep your thumb up
Set deep in the saddle
heals down,head up,
back straight,flex in your knees ,
Eyes on where you are going,
let your loop sail to where he is going to be,
Another hundred head and this will all be easy........
Passion....

Whatever happens in life, however it leaves it, same shape, distorted thoughts, we are who we are and too often, so much better for it. Strange how your words sit astride so well .. you seem to know more than your fair share. 'Baby Blue eyes. coyboy (think that should read cowboy though maybe you were coy!) tough working.' You seem to have some wonderful memories, however they left you! Thoughts to think about. Thank you, as always.

33 minuets ago our fingers were touching keys,together,us different high schools, together at the same park.

6 minutes... Closer now the tree line comes, a light in the wilderness..a home for wordsmiths...wrapped in coffee cups and satin, warm,green woods gone. I can see clear...to the Dover foam breaking at the cliffs edge.Beckoning blond curls framed in puffs of wind......

you certainly know how to juggle words - lovely at that!

That is how I felt when I get back together with the guy I'm with now. He makes me high, but also makes me feel wanted when I'm around him.

That's love Lee. That's a passion. And this is a reflective/meditative
damn good poem

Easy come easy go... it seems when we lose something we want we gain something we need.

Sounds like words of advice from one who knows what it is all about! Ride that horse of life and carry the lessons learned with you for all your days so that if you even lose one part of it there is still hope! Shake the dust off, and keep on going!!
Your writes are always very interesting!!
