Time Passages and empty Foyers

Time Passages and empty Foyers

 

 

 

 

I curled up

in the arms of a decade

 

the lover gave me years

then vanished

 

now I am assaulted by a decade

I detest

 

the ruination

a book of detestable poems

 

but i couldn't write you out of my

conscience

 

I could only curl up

with your memory.

A curious truth, how in our outpourings of verse we are 'hammocked' by these lines and frozen thoughts. There may be a technical, almost clinical aspect, to the 'discipline' of poetry as a literary form, and yet after all that, the soul of it reflects or refracts our own, its point of origin, its life spring and source. Thanks for sharing.

When you share… the days are Bearable … It is Tough when someone leaves… Now you have the Adoration of Many… and more … We will see you through the Seasons …. tenderly, Pat

dear Jacob... I have been trying to contact my Class Mate Bonnie, but Alas... too many years have flown. I know she would remember the name of the Concert Virtuoso Pianist... whose Concert we went to in perhaps 1957 or there about. Thank you for calling up what may be the Perfect Match... you are so resourceful and charming. gently, Pat
