when I am old
let my eyes adjust
so that I see beyond
the depths known as sorrow
into the 6D color
of living
let my heart beat
heavy –
and let me bleed
in shades
of purple crayon
let laughter
be the sin for which
I am known
. . .
writing in the dark

author’s note: I clipped this picture some years
back. It’s not mine, but it is. It’s a place I return
often, a reminder that beauty lives in sometimes
dirty places.
Absolutely beautiful and extremely powerful!
Thank you, my precious friend. ❤

Sometimes trying to describe WHY something is beautiful… defeats the purpose of calling it beautiful… Oh, this poem for me IS…
beautiful…
………and regardless the reason, you bless me with your understanding………. ❤
Thank you for that. It really does mean a lot.
Wow I love this so much….so striking!
Thank you, my precious friend. I love that you do.
Rather dark, when laughter qualifies as sin …
Indeed…….but in some cultures, it is a revelation that reveals too much the soul. I am soooooooooo grateful I don’t live there, for surely I would have died there. 🙂 Thank you, my dearest Salva.
Yes, much better to avoid such places. 🙂
Ah, but darlin’ girl, ye’ll never grow old, and may ye laugh right into the world beyond this one, loud and long…, and may we meet along that path and share a smile ! 🙂
…xo
🙂
… laughter be the sin … you are just so good!
O, my friend, thank you. I have a dear acquaintance who absolutely delights in hearing me laugh – not just the run of the meal ‘oh that’s funny’ laugh, but in the deep ‘I can’t help it laugh’……..that which begins in the gut and carries with it the soul. ❤
Ah! Now that is a laugh! I am just smiling at the very thought of that! Thank you 🙂
🙂
Laughter is the song of love. I love your words, and you Bobbie. ❤ xxXxx
Indeed it is, Jane. There’s nothing sexier than laughter! 🙂
Whenever I read your words, i am always left with a radiant smile…thanks for sharing Bobbie!
And thanks for sharing that smile with me, dear Wendell. 🙂

This is such a sweet and wonderful piece. It carries a great and positive message about how we should view and enjoy our more mature years.
My sentiments exactly!
Well done!
Unfortunately, most are trying so hard to get their youth back that they can’t enjoy the wonder that is at the root of wisdom.
How can we write the next chapter if we insist on re-reading (over and over) the last one?
Thank you, my dear one. ❤
