P.E.R.



i didn't see you go
the chest settling rattle
now silent
vanished into the bed sheets
white and starched and straight

one day i may regret that

i visited Kahil Gibran
and found solace
within his words
striding across the skies in a jet stream of beauty

in my mind now
you are astride a Norton
riding into the sun
free and vibrant

while we stay lost.....restrained and slow
awaiting our release.

  6. That is such a beauty... "while we stay lost.....restrained and slow
    awaiting our release." Loved it!
    We are lost in a world still away from our ultimate goal. Good Work!
