faded white
the promises
I swore to never lose –
though sometimes
I can’t move
within my skin
backward through the
coming back –
onward to the place
where standing now
is standing still
in time
april seems
a world away –
and yet another morning
is pushed against the feelings
I’ve almost
but not forgotten
and eyes
to scan the edges
of a world so few have known
orchids bloom
in shadows
where the darkness
goes to dream
. . .

this was beautiful
Thank you so much, dear heart. I’ve fussed over it for a day or two…….and still was unsure. I’m glad to know it was as should be, and that you were the first to find it. Thank you. ~ All my love, Bobbie
Your words are stunning.
As is the light that is your smile, dearest Deana. Thank you. ~ My love always, Bobbie
Come the warmth of spring
to banish now the cold
Bring the new dawn’s light
before we grow too old.
I know it’s probably not what you were writing about, Bobbie, but this is what it brought into my mind. Liked what you wrote. ~xo~

Although ‘not exactly’ my thoughts, if they inspired this to you, then I am grateful. Thank you, Paul. ~ As always, Bobbie
I love this- As always Bobbie, wonderful poetry
Thank you, Cindy. Like your handle, your presence here is indeed a sweet simple pleasure. Thank you, dear one. ~ Ever love, Bobbie
mmmm…no comment; I’ve ever felt “April” a far-away-month even when my calendar shows that it’s the 31st of March:'(
hugs
ahhh………but you and I know the truth……..the heart keeps no memory of the calendar, and the soul waits not the autumn moon. Thank you. It’s so wonderful to see you, Mira Jay. ~ Love, Bobbie
I am already breathing spring, and the joy of life it brings, your words only enhance that beautiful feeling!
I think we’re all ready…….. 😉 The flowers are bursting with voice. ~ Love, Bobbie
