My Imaginary Locket

I wear an imaginary locket around my neck I go to a quiet place and look at your picture I close my eyes softly and ponder what your eyes look like Then I close my imaginary locket and place it even closer to my heart Its hinges are worn Your image is faded I hope to see you soon to snap a new mental picture My imaginary locket worn securely in its place My heart dances merrily when I put it back in its place Gwendolen Rix 12-17-14

A love kept close to the heart provides warmth and comfort . . . real or imaginary -- love transcends all. Lovely write.
