A Rare Find

A Rare Find The pain of loneliness won’t kill me But I thought it might a time or two Because I had thoughts of a better life It was just something I always knew But time and pain have cured me Of wanting that elusive life I had my time and it was good The days when I was a wife Now those days are gone I was sorry to see them go But my life is not so bad now I have been given time to grow I know now who I am And I don’t lie or pretend I had my share of that heartache But even that has found an end There was a man the other day Said he was trying to do something on line He contacted me by mistake And I wrote and told him it was fine Don’t worry overly much about it We all share in the in that little game Mistakes are so easy to make And then we exchanged names He asked me a few questions And I answered him in kind We started a conversation And I thought ..what a rare find. Someone who likes to talk And share what’s on his mind Not asking for anything else Yes, my dear, you are a rare find. Connie Moore 4/17/14
