the snow blows across the ground wind twirling it about,
a face to touch so far, now not around, a memory left and no sound,
i stand and watch the snow fall, and wonder why he had to go.

the clouds role in, the fog and rain wraps around me,
I listen to distant music, I miss a Friend I miss my Son,
I miss my Mom who has moved on to her next journey.
People  fight! people die. Tears drop and I cry.
Numbers grow
each day. Wish there was a way to win
this covid war.  It seems to take  a stand.  
  Every day this battle that mankind is fighting
is getting bad. I Wish I  could talk to Mom and Dad
so I just look to the sky and pray.

memory's  of a time  shared, now lost
looking at the moon and wondering what went wrong.

why did it end so suddenly.
reaching out to a fading smile.
A sea between. eyes of blue.
I stand alone  and whisper a name.
the rain softly falls, through the night.
maybe if  I light a candle he will return.

Standing out in the dark of night
as the wind silently blows through the trees.
Leaves flutter as the  firefly's dance.  
The full moon glows so bright, lighting up the yard and street.
I think of what all I'm blessed with, And remember those who have
passed through my life.

THIS  came to me while standing out on my  front porch gazing at the full moon.

    I walk around  alone in the shopping center. I

smile at a stranger

they don't even notice,You say hi,

they walk on by......when did people all die?

go to a small coffee shop,

Enjoy a dark roast. take in

the warmth of the cup.

pick up the paper, read the head lines!

more about the war

another shooting in a school, lines the paper.

Possible snow tomorrow.

did you really want to know.?  An supervisor at your job

asked you how you are & why your low.

remember to smile and compliment them,

they really don't want to know.

  don't be honest ,

our your unemployed.

        isn't it a shamed! no one wants

to know your name

you must... play the game!  Its all the same.

today we walked along the river with the water lapping against the shore, and a gentle breeze
blew against the blue sky. Buds were starting to break  out on the tips of the branches. It soothed  my soul, and allowed me to disconnect from the clutter of everyday life. It is great to be in the moment and appreciate all that surround's us. One is blessed with time to reflect. All the beauty.
one day my cousin Karen posted about her and her hubbys walk by the river  
in spring. I found her words to be touching.  so i wrote a poem from her experience. and her description so this poem is deliciated to her.

I stand in the middle of winter, looking out at the snow,
i wonder if i should stay or go. If i should leave fore the one
the doesn't like me, So. I am alone. Spring is yet far.
fore one reminds me of another gone. I can not speak of what is within.
