Thoughts~
I wonder where you are tonight
in the aftermath of extinct social graces
Are you the breath of wind
that caresses my face
with tranquility?
Or the dancing leaves
that pirouette before me
but never stray from sight?
If spiritual sublimation
.....is love,
then why must it be so difficult
to trace it's footprints
in the sands of time?
Are we, mere mortals...
souls in borrowed bodies
lent to us for brief spans
to teach...
....to learn
....... to falter
with each imperfect step
we walk on
this journey we have come to know
..... as life.
