I love it! Beautifully put!

These are really good, but I can especially just hear Bob Dylan singing this last one, especially the last stanza. :-)

watching threads unravel
spaces beween some dreams
handprints on the glass
smell of disconnect
keep sanity at bay
how long were you sleeping
before you found them washed away

~~~~~~~~

silence echos off no walls
vacant space abounds
a slight shadow remains
shifting in the wind
who answers to no name
instead of your voice
all thats left is
tumbleweeds and dust

shy moonlight spills
scattered secrets
only mute stars can hear
nature left no key
its pandora's box
best left forgot
in lapping waves
of endless time
as the keepers
stand their guard
should the sand run out

so glad your muse is back....it has been missed

This one is particularly good

I have started a story
these pages of my life
among the many words
tear stained, of learning
of Life, Love, and Loss
in some places void of ink
jagged edges of desperation
while the memories remain
though the pen finally stops
the story doesn't end
instead, it simply joins
the voices of the past

Wow. Very impressed with the pieces I've read. Poetry is hard for me.. but yours has a beauty very accessible to dodo-heads like myself... Thank you, my dear.

Thank you from the kind words... they warm my heart :)

these mists within who dance
to a tune I cannot hear and
pull on strings I cannot see and
stir up a frenzy .... until one day
There's a hint of a whisper
of a voice from long ago who
speaks in tongues I used to know
but like a woman on a train
I kept my seat instead so
the writing on the wall remains
still a mystery ... though
wind shifts the hands of time
and the lands that I once knew
covered deep beneath the sand
their secrets hidden once again
