Whew... this was reminiscent of a piece I wrote years ago. sometimes we get in our own way, scattering the beat till we have to retreat and recover. you have done such with so few words, and its the definition of poetic. Wonderful write!

I just spoke to Doctor of poetry he says you are suffering from a cluttered mind of entangled thoughts. Probably a bit dry on the words which probably need lubricating, say two maybe three standard drinks should do the trick. Actually this is a good write in itself J.

Emotions do dance to the beat of a fractured rhythm....and it changes minute to minute for some. There are times retreating is the best path.....the safest one! Rhyming....unusual for you. I liked it. Lydi**

Thank you, Lydi...yes, every once in awhile...I am guilty of the old rhyming thing....
An eloquent retreat, indeed. Thank you for sharing this with us.
