Dying Embers

I cast the ashes
of our romance
out upon the wind,
and pray the rain
will quench the flame.

Nice one, Virginia. Love lost...hurts...to long! By the way, I am going to try to start commenting again. I have just been too weepy these past three months…commenting became difficult. Thanks for understanding. God be with you and keep up the excellent writing. Lovingly, Dane Ann
