In Sorrow

There is a welcome soft sadness

One that tastes of joy and loss

Peaceful contemplation inviting

A road few can find, or cross


It wells from deep within the heart

Spreading, it opens to peace

A lonely openness expanding

In which fear and pettiness cease

 
And I am lost

A feather borne

Aloft wisps of emotion

Into the day reborn

Thank you so much. I have been reading some of your writing as well; where do I even begin?? Oh but I will, you are so good, and I will find the words to tell you. Stephen.
