If You Could

If
                             You could
                           See me now
                        Writing the words
                        As you liked to do
                     Filling the blank pages
                   Writing affirmations too
           Old thoughts, evolving to new ones
        From the last day, that I could see you
     From where I flew from then, to how I grew

This is a wonderful Etheree my friend! I think that these forms can be tricky sometimes, the can catch you off guard and make you change half your poem if you aren't careful! I surely loved reading it this morning! Such a grand piece, Great Work!!

Such a lovely etheree Heidi about your personal growth, and I feel, for someone you were close to and wish was still here with you on Earth. Your poem felt very intimate to me in that way. I love etherees as you may have noticed on my page, I've written them as much as I've written pantoums lol! A great etheree Heidi. Loved it :)

Hi Susan. Thank you. Yes, Etheree poems are fun. I have done some Pantoum, although find them to be more difficult. You are right, this is about someone in heaven who I lost.
