silhouettes pry
the secrets untold
from the heart of the storybook
teller I’m told
there are places
forgotten
sometimes it is said
when the words
are come easy
to press round my bed
and rain pours her tears
to my pillow (my soul)
who will remember
I wonder sometimes
what is lost
in the leaving –
the growing to old
as rings on the willow
a promise was made
and nursed by the darkness
returning our light
silver blue shadows
flash to and fro –
as a sign of our saving
wings touch the night
as a dream just beginning
a story so sweet
is gone with the dawning
a silent retreat
from the trust in another
was wonder to know
when leaned into love –
paper wings
letting go
. . .

I remember a song as popped up a second ago during reading your lovely words … it is always darker before the dawn ….
It is, Bart. It is also colder then……….. 🙂 I think that’s why I like that time so much. Thank you, my friend. ~ Love always, Bobbie
lovely warm words.
The first 4 strophes are electrifying !
“silhouettes pry the secrets untold
from the heart of the storybook teller I’m told”
More truth in these lines than I would want to admit, Bobbie.
Dreams come at the night, sometimes linger on
To drift from our sight in the light of the dawn.
But memories, sad and happy, in our hearts always stay
To walk in our thoughts through each long passing day.
…..Really liked what you wrote above, Bobbie. As good as I always thought you were, you just keep getting better and better. Good night, Sweetness, ~xo~ Me
Thank you, my sweet precious Paul. Truly, thank you. ~ Love, Bobbie
Wonderful…Namaste, mary
…….and I return the favor, my beautiful friend. Namaste, dear Mary. ~ Love, Bobbie
Such words that fill the air with its sweet serenade! One can dance within, each time your words are read, because of their exquisite nature. Your words breathe love in such a heavenly way…hugs to you always Bobbie!
