Fading Fragile

Fading and fragile, a small shadow frailly rest upon tears of battle. Should joy ever again need me aware, it would do well to seek me there.

Thank you, Susan. It is wonderful when someone reads 'older' postings, bringing them out of the shadows where they all too quickly go. I appreciate you very much ... CayCay

Literally light-headed after reading this poem. One of those moments when I smile and shake my head at the beauty and wonder of it. Finely crafted, and hard-hitting in its brevity, I see this inscribed in gold on the finest porcelain.
