Standing Together Alone



There was no wind,
                          two trees
                                       pointing at life
                                                           painting dreams.

Seen at a bend in the road.



Grasping one sun

wrapping each with the other

teakettle, house

as together they laughed

laughs.



There was no wind,
                          two trees
                                       pointing at life
                                                           painting dreams.

Seen at a bend in the road.



Beating one heart

wrapping each with the other

house, river

as they kissed goodbyes

goodbye.



There was a wind,
                           one tree
                                      pointing at life
                                                          painting dreams.

Seen at a bend in the road.


Beating two hearts

wrapping one with the other

river, wind

as they share life’s

life.

    Thanks Craig. Very inspirational folks and the painting said so much. It was not finished when I saw it and I don't know if he ever completed it - Two trees representing their individual lives - each reaching and branching out and though they'd been married for many years, still separate in many regards.

    Loved your blog! Excellent write. Wish I could have seen the picture, too. I haven't figured out how to post them either.

    First blog - didn't know if it would post. Dedicated to good friends that journeyed through terminal illness. I regret that I cannot post the painting that inspired the poem. It was painted by the cancer patient as he explored and embraced his dying life.
