    Passing Seasons

    In bare treesI’ve lost somethingto grey winds passingto thoughts that should havelingered longerbut they drifted bylike leaves downstreaminto the mistThe grass bendsin the lifeless fieldI call meand I go onfor more seasonsthan I can stand.

    • wow this sounds like a relationship and how you feel within yourself in it great write ❤️

    • Thank you, Crimsin. 🙂

    • This has me thinking about my dad. This is very good Tim, I like this alot

    • On point, Tim. I love the reflective nature of this. It has powerful meaning on its own, as a read for us too.
      My father died slow, and quite aware of it all, til the end. I was his friend more than his son. But it was crushing just as much.
      Your write is outstanding.

      • Thank you Styx. You’re lucky, my father didn’t know who I was in the end. He thought I was a hospital worker being he was in and out of there so much. He may have known on the last night, but I’ll never know for sure.

    • Powerfully penned, Tim. Excellent write my friend. This one pulls at the heartstrings. Appreciate you.

    • Thank you for your thoughts, Damian.

    • Tim, I felt this in the marrow of my bones deep in a place I haven’t visited in so long. Truly a deeply felt poem with a melancholy beauty that was perfect for this night’s reading.

    • This captures the way memory frays at the edges. A tender, aching piece.

    Pain

    Pain   Pain ran down my leg like it was speaking in tongues, crazed English gibberish that brought tears and chaos. The iron fisted chaos that always wanted more, and I was simply in the way.   I was caught in a downward spiral, down, down, down into a chasm of sharp...

    • I do hope you’re healing now! There’s nothing adequate to describe that level of pain but you sure did it justice.

    • Thank you for your comment and concern, Willow. I am healing, but it’s taking so damn long. It’s been over 3 months now and there is still a lot of pain in the leg and knee. I can hear them talking and laughing. Ice (the solid water type) has become a welcome friend.
      Thanks again Willow!!!

    • Yikes! This past year I had a severe sprained ankle. It felt like it was on fire! It swelled up like an elephant foot.
      Went to the ER and did X-rays. Nothing broken thank god!
      I can’t imagine how much pain that was when it is actually broken bones.
      I’m sure you noticed by now I’m a huge baby when it comes to pain.

      I can totally relate to the pain speaking in tongues!

      Very well put Curt.

    Love Sonnet LXXI

    Love Sonnet LXXI   I see your face in my dreams, your red hair, blown by your breath, smells of your jasmine shampoo, and lies across my breast.   Yaraa, why do you haunt me? Why does my mind always return to you, to your soft skin, and savory...
